Dream trip ends in tragedy

AN Irish woman on a dream holiday to Nashville, Tennessee, has been killed in a bus accident.

Nancy Earls from Arklow, Co Wicklow, was one of two people who died when a bus carrying Elvis Presley fans collided with a truck in the early hours of yesterday morning.

Her travelling companions, her sister and brother-in-law Joan and Dennis McGuinness, also from Arklow, were released from hospital after treatment for cuts and bruises.
