- Detectives are looking for a sixth man who is believed to have been a passenger
Police have launched a probe into an 'altercation' at a caravan park which is said to have happened just hours before the horror car crash in Cardiff that left three dead and two seriously injured.
The details of the bust-up are not yet clear but it reportedly happened at Trecco Bay caravan park in Porthcawl, which is where the group had travelled 40 miles to after exiting a nightclub in Newport, south Wales, last Friday night.
Detectives are now hunting for a sixth passenger - an unnamed man - who is understood to have been dropped off at his home in Cardiff after the group left the caravan park.
Eve Smith and her friend Darcy Ross, both 21, died in the collision alongside Rafel Jeanne, 24. And Sophie Russon, 20, and Shane Loughlin, 32, both remain in a critical condition after being left in the wreckage for nearly two days.

Mirror reports.
A spokesperson for South Wales Police told the paper that they would not make any additional comments while the investigation was ongoing.
It is not yet known why the group went to the caravan park, but it is believed that Mr Loughlin's family own a caravan at the site.
A friend who has helped in the search for the group wrote on social media that there was an 'altercation at the caravan site where the security guards last seen them'.
'Not sure what the altercation was but the security said they all jumped into this car,' the friend added.
