Witnesses To Enniskerry Crash Sought

Gardaí investigating a fatal road accident in Co Wicklow earlier this month are appealing for help from the public.

They said that it happened on Military Road, Glencree, Enniskerry, on 5th June and that officers have since arrested a man in his 20s in connection with this incident.

They said the man was arrested in Dublin earlier this week and is currently detained at Bray Garda Station under Section 4 Criminal Justice Act 1984.

Now, Gardaí wish to appeal to any persons who may have witnessed this collision or who may have information to contact them at Bray Garda Station 01-6665300, the Garda Confidential Line 1-800-666-111 or any Garda Station.

The tragic crash left a man in his early 20s fatally injured when the car he was driving left the road.

He was pronounced dead at the scene and his body removed to Loughlinstown Hospital while the passenger in the car, another male (aged-25 years) was taken to St. Vincent's Hospital with what are described at the time as serious injuries.
