Man questioned in hit-and-run death investigation

A FILE is being prepared for the DPP following a hit and run accident in which a 65-year-old pedestrian was killed.

Following an appeal for information on the death of Finbarr Walsh on Thursday evening, a man walked into Gurranabraher Garda Station in Cork at midday yesterday and was questioned in connection with the death.

Mr Walsh, from Connolly Road, Ballyphehane, was struck as he was walking along Lee Road at approximately 5.30pm on Thursday. The car that hit him failed to stop.
