Gardaí are renewing their appeal for witnesses following a fatal traffic collision in County Galway on Sunday last.
Shortly before 6:30am, Gardaí were alerted to a collision involving a car and a pedestrian on the N84 at Carrowbrowne on the Headford Road in Galway.
The pedestrian, a man in his 30s, later passed away from his injuries and has since been named locally as Shane Doherty.
Gardaí are appealing to anyone who may have witnessed this incident to come forward. Road users with camera footage (including dash cam) who were travelling in the area at the time are asked to make it available to investigating Gardaí.
In particular, any person that may have been travelling in either direction on the N84, Headford Road, near Carrowbrowne between 5.30 and 06.30 on Sunday morning, and who may have seen or noticed anything on the road at this time.
Shane’s remains will repose at his family home at 8 Grattan Road, Galway tomorrow Wednesday and Thursday from 2pm until 4pm and again from 6pm until 8pm, on both days.
He will be laid to rest in Rahoon Cemetery on Friday after 11 o'clock mass in St. Mary's Church, The Claddagh, Galway.
