Man arrested over hit and run

Gardaí have arrested a man in his 20s and questioned two others after a hit and run which left an elderly woman cyclist in hospital.

Meanwhile, they have appealed for anybody who may have seen the movements of a green Toyota Starlet on Tuesday evening to contact them.

It’s believed the car turned off the N25 at the Waterrock junction, west of Midleton shortly before 7.30pm and headed down what is called the ‘back road’ to Carrigtwohill.
