A man has died in a road crash in Limerick city
Gardai are appealing for witnesses after a man was killed in a road collision in Limerick city tonight.
A man – believed to be in his forties – died when the car he was travelling in hit another vehicle at Hyde Road at around 7.45pm.
A second occupant of the car was injured as were the occupants of the second vehicle – a man and his daughter.
It is not believed that any of the three sustained life-threatening injuries.
Emergency services are at the scene and the road is expected to remain closed for several hours to facilitate technical and forensic examinations.
