Man Killed and Two 'Seriously Injured' Following Tragic Crash in Armagh
Police said a man in his 20s died and two others were hospitalized after the collision, which involved four vehicles and remains under investigation.
On Monday, 23-year-old Dylan McCann died following a four-vehicle collision at the junction of Armagh Road and Church Road in Newry at approximately 6:30 am.
The crash involved a white Scania lorry, white Renault Master van, blue BMW, and white Toyota Auris after the Northern Ireland Ambulance Service received a 999 call at 6:29 am.
While drivers of the Toyota Auris and Scania lorry were uninjured, the van's passenger and driver were hospitalized with "serious" injuries, and McCann was pronounced dead at the scene.
Detective Inspector Stewart of the PSNI's Collision Investigation Unit is leading the investigation, appealing for witnesses or dash-cam footage using reference 159 or by calling 101.
Authorities closed the Armagh Road at the Church Road junction to examine the scene, with police implementing a number of diversions as the investigation continues.
