Three men killed as car spins out of control and hits wall
The accident happened at 4am yesterday at Beechvalley Road in Dungannon. The men, who were from the area, were pronounced dead at the scene, bringing to 54 the number of people who have died on roads in the North so far this year, 13 more than for the comparable period in 2002.
Meanwhile, gardaí have praised motorists for one of the safest Bank Holiday weekends in Irish history with no repeat of last year’s road carnage that left five people dead.
