Soldier appears in court over Wiltshire crash that killed two colleagues

Jack Paolucci, 19, and Courtney Jennings, 18, died after ‘overloaded’ car driven by Bradley Clough crashed into trees

A British soldier caused the death of two teenage colleagues when his packed car skidded out of control and smashed into trees during a drive to a Halloween party, a jury has been told.

Seven people, some wearing fancy dress, were allegedly crammed into the five-seater Renault Clio driven by Pte Bradley Clough when it crashed close to Tidworth barracks in Wiltshire, Winchester crown court heard.
