Infant believed to be among four killed following three-car crash on Galway motorway

The M6 was closed to traffic in both directions at junction 14 and junction 15 due to the collision. 

An infant is believed to be among four people killed in a three-car crash just outside of Ballinasloe, Co Galway on Thursday evening.

Following the deaths of six people on Irish roads in the space of 24 hours, the Road Safety Authority and Gardaí are issuing an appeal to all roads users to take greater care.
