Falling goalpost kills boy

A 10-YEAR-OLD boy was killed when a goalpost fell on him as he waited to watch his father play in a football match yesterday.

The youngster, from Dundalk in Co Louth, was hit on the back of the head by the post as he played with other children ahead of a local senior game.

He had travelled to Navan in Co Meath to watch the Meath and District League match between his father’s team, Woodview Celtic, and Navan Town.
