Woman loses leg in DART station accident

Irish Rail has said it will fully investigate an incident at a DART station in which a Dublin woman lost her leg.

It is understood the 30-year-old fell into a gap between the platform and a train at Tara Street, and needed to have her leg amputated below the knee.

The woman was part of a group that had left one of the carriages.

Barry Kenny from Irish Rail said it is a tragic accident and the company's thoughts are with her.
