Three people died in separate road crashes in Dubai in the early hours of Friday morning.

A man was killed after being struck by a car while he stood in the overtaking lane of the Abu Dhabi-bound section of Sheikh Zayed Road - near Jebel Ali - at 4.25am.

It is not known why the man was on the road at the time.

An hour later, a 19-year-old passenger died after the minibus he was travelling in collided with a lorry on the Abu Dhabi-Dubai route of the same highway.

A cyclist died after being hit by a car while attempting to cross a road near Jebel Ali Port shortly before 6.50am.
