A baby boy with a “joyful smile” was killed when a van mounted a pavement and struck his pram.
Five-month-old Louis Thorold died following the collision on the A10 in Waterbeach on Friday, Cambridgeshire Police said.
His 36-year-old mother Rachael Thorold, who was pushing the pram, is in hospital in a critical but stable condition, the force said.
Police have released a photo of Ms Thorold holding her smiling son, with the picture taken just hours before the collision.
The father of a baby boy who died after a collision in Waterbeach paid tribute to his son.
Louis’s father, Chris Thorold, who is the finance director of Marshall Aerospace, said: “We will love you always our little Louis. You were only with us for a short time, but you made us the happiest people in the world.
“I cannot describe how heartbroken we are that you are gone. You are such a happy little boy and your joyful smile and laughter will never leave us.
“Your ma-ma is fighting to stay with us and we are praying that she will make it through.
