The Garda Ombudsman has launched an investigation into the circumstances of a road crash in County Limerick which involved a garda jeep and another car.

The collision happened at around 11pm last night at Barrigone, Askeaton near to where a garda and a fireman were killed while attending the scene of an accident five years ago.

Three male gardaí and two men travelling in the other car were brought to the Mid-Western Regional Hospital following last night's crash. Their conditions have been described as "non life threatening".

A section of the N69 where last night's crash occured has been closed to faciliate an examination of the scene.
