A teenager who suffered a head injury after she was knocked down as she crossed a road near her home has settled her High Court action for €1.5m.

Mr Justice Kevin Cross was told the young girl, who was 14 years old at the time, had allegedly walked out on to the road without looking. She had emerged, it was claimed, from the front of a bus which was stopped.
