AN INQUEST is being held at Caernarfon today into the deaths of four teenagers who died after a crash in North Wales.

Jevon Hirst, 16, Harvey Owen, 17, Wilf Fitchett, 17, and Hugo Morris, 18, died in November last year. 

All four were from the Shropshire area.

A major search was launched for the A-level students after they failed to return home from an overnight camping trip to the Eryri area.

A brief four-minute hearing was held on November 29 during which Kate Robertson, HM Coroner for North West Wales, stated the provisional cause of their deaths was drowning.

The coroner said: "I offer the families of Wilf, Jevon, Hugo and Harvey my sincerest condolences."
