‘Jake said: Mammy, I don’t want to die’
Jake Brennan lost his life on Thursday night after being struck by a car while he was playing outside his house in a cul de sac in the Lintown Hall estate on the edge of Kilkenny City.
His mother, Roseann, said yesterday that Jake had been conscious for a few seconds after he was hit by the car at about 6.30pm, but had suffered catastrophic internal injuries, and was pronounced dead in St Luke’s Hospital.
