Gardaí in fresh appeal for witnesses to tragic road death of young boy

GARDAÍ are appealing for witnesses as they continue their investigation into the tragic death of an eight-year-old boy from West Cork.

Roan Harrington died after apparently falling off his bicycle while out cycling last Sunday evening near his home at Ballydonegan, Allihies.

Roan was supposed to start his first day in second class at Cahermore National School yesterday, and to mark the tragedy classmates held a prayer service for him.
