Shaken McEllistrim back canvassing following car crash
The Kerry North-Limerick West TD was on his way to hand-deliver his election nomination papers to the county registrar’s office in Tralee when his car was in a serious collision with another vehicle at Ballyseedy Cross, on the main Tralee to Killarney and Castleisland road.
The crash occurred shortly after 10am when Mr McEllistrim’s Opel Insignia was in a collision with a Volkswagen Golf. The male driver of the VW and a woman who was a front seat passenger in Mr McEllistrim’s car were both taken to hospital and treated for shock, but their injuries were not said to be serious.
