The funerals of two of the young women killed in Tuesday's crash in Co Kildare are taking place in Carlow today.

Four young lifelong friends killed in a road accident, and their friend who is seriously injured in hospital, had been planning to spend the night together before the fatal accident in Kildare.

A college that the four Kildare crash victims had attended has said it is "devastated at the loss of four beautiful young girls."
