Man killed after collision with lorry
The accident occurred just before 2pm on a bend on the main Sixmilebridge-Kilmurry road.
The deceased man is from the Sixmilebridge area and gardaí were last night refusing to release the man’s identity until all his relatives were notified. The driver of the lorry was not seriously injured. Yesterday’s fatal accident was the second in Clare in the past three days and brings to 370 the number of people killed on Ireland’s roads this year, compared to 346 for the corresponding period in 2004.
