Wave of suicides includes teenage victims

FOUR more people, including two teenagers, have taken their own lives in the south-east region since the triple drowning of a mother and her two daughters last weekend.

The tragic, unrelated deaths of seven people since Saturday has sparked fears of another wave of copycat deaths in the greater Wexford community. Between November 9 and December 19, 2002, six men jumped to their death off Enniscorthy's two bridges.

On Saturday, a GP in Gorey was found dead in his home. The married father of three was very well respected in the community.
