The 27-year-old who died in a boating accident in Lough Ree has been named locally as David Warnock from Armagh City.

An eye-witness to the tragedy in Lough Ree that has claimed the life of a fisherman has said that their boat was hit by a "freak squall".

CONCERN is growing, yet again, about the state of Lough Lein, in Killarney, amid fears of another outbreak of an algal bloom.
