Garda Forensic Investigator To Examine Scene Of Fatal Cork Crash
A garda forensic crash investigator will this morning examine the scene of a single vehicle crash near Skibbereen which claimed the life of a 72-year-old woman yesterday afternoon.
The woman was a front seat passenger in a car being driven by her husband when it hit a ditch on the Skibbereen to Lough Hyne road and rolled over on to its roof at around 4.30pm.
The tragedy is the first road death in Cork in 2017 and brings to 11 the number of people who have lost their lives on Irish roads since the start of the year.
