The streets of east Leeds were filled with motorbikes on Friday as hundreds took to the streets to pay tribute to Luke Deegan.

The 19-year-old motorcyclist was killed in a crash in January. Police closed roads on the procession from the Old Red Lion pub in Whinmoor to the funeral service at Whitkirk St Mary's Church. All photos: Gary Longbottom
