Two separate investigations into fatal car crash

Two separate investigations have been launched into a fatal car crash which took the life of a 32-year-old woman, but spared her 3-year-old niece.

Bus Éireann confirmed late last night that it had opened a second inquiry into what happened, in addition to the Garda investigation.

The crash, which occurred at 6.10pm near Navan on the busy N3 road between Cavan and Dublin City, involved the car and a double-decker Bus Éireann vehicle carrying 53 people.
