€2.5m for teenager injured in crash

A teenager today received €2.5m compensation for serious injuries he received in a road accident almost six years ago.

Danny Walsh from Pearse Road, Ballyphehane, Cork, was only 16 years old when he was in the horrific car crash after a day trip to Crosshaven on Sunday May 3, 1999. Now 22, he is incapable of living independently and will need assistance for the rest of his life.
