The Road Safety Authority (RSA) has renewed its appeal for care and vigilance on the roads after nine road deaths over the Christmas period.

A man in his 20s has died in a single-car crash in Co Meath.

AROUND €200,000 was stolen from security staff stocking a cash machine in the latest of three similar armed robberies in the greater Dublin area in a week.

A pedestrian has died following a road traffic accident in Cornelstown in south Dublin last night bringing the total of people who have been killed on Irish roads this week to six.
