Man dies and woman taken to hospital after road crash

A 21-year-old man has died following a road crash in Co Tyrone.

The collision happened in the Cookstown area on Friday morning.

Shortly after 6.45am police received a report of a crash involving a grey Seat Leon and a grey Volkswagen Bora on the Pomeroy Road.

Inspector Cherith Adair of the Police Service of Northern Ireland’s Collision Investigation Unit said: “Our officers attended alongside emergency service partners, however the male driver of one of the vehicles was sadly pronounced deceased at the scene.

“A woman was also transferred to hospital for treatment for her injuries.

“The Pomeroy Road, which had been closed at its junctions with the Drum Road and Drumnacross Road, as we conducted a forensic examination, has now re-opened.

“Our inquiries are continuing, and we would appeal to anyone who witnessed the collision, or who may have digital footage which could assist with our investigation, to contact the collision investigation unit on 101, quoting reference number 235 of 10/10/25.”
