The Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commmission (GSOC) is investigating whether an offence was committed by a member of An Garda Siochana when a 21-year-old woman was killed in a collision with a patrol car.

Rebecca Browne, from Galliagh, Derry, was on a night out in Buncrana, Co Donegal, when she was hit by the garda car early on a Sunday morning in May.
