Gardaí continue probe into fatal five-lorry accident

GARDAÍ were yesterday waiting to interview three lorry drivers who were seriously injured in a horrific accident which claimed the life of a 34-year-old Polish man.

Slawomir Siwonia, a married father-of-one from Thurles, Co Tipperary, died after the truck he was driving went out of control and crashed into four other lorries on the main Cork-Dublin road on Thursday morning.

The accident occurred two miles north of Fermoy, near the Corbett Court Hotel at 6.50am.
