A 20-year-old man who was stabbed to death after a car crash has been described as a "wonderful son, loving brother and doting uncle" by his family.
Jamie Evans was attacked after his red Ford Fiesta and a grey Audi crashed in Orme Road, a residential street in Newcastle-under-Lyme, Staffordshire, just after 17:00 BST on Friday.
Passers-by tried to help him until paramedics arrived but he died from a single stab wound after being taken to hospital.
Staffordshire Police said three men had been arrested - two on suspicion of murder and a third on conspiracy to murder.
His family, who are being supported by specially trained officers, said Jamie, from Stone, had a "warmth, kindness and great sense of humour" that bought "happiness to everyone around him".
"Jamie was so passionate about cricket and fitness, enjoying every opportunity to be active, challenge himself and spend time doing the things he loved.
"These passions reflected his determination, energy and zest for life."
They added that he would be "deeply loved, profoundly missed and never forgotten", and thanked members of the public who went to his aid and tried to help him.
The men being held on suspicion of murder are aged 20 and 22 and from the Newcastle-under-Lyme area. They remain in custody after Staffordshire Police was granted extra time to question them.
The third man, 19 and also from the Newcastle-under-Lyme area, was arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to murder and also remains in custody.
