A 15-year-old girl has died in hospital following a road crash in Co Londonderry.

Police said Candice Tosh had been killed following the incident in Macosquin last week.

Shortly after 12.50pm on Thursday, police received and responded to a report that a teenage girl had been struck by car on the Dunhill Road.
