Videos of hotwired cars appear online in 'tribute' to Cork teen who died in stolen car
Emergency services at the scene of a fatal collision on the M8 motorway near Mitchelstown, Co. Cork, last Saturday.
Videos have been posted online showing teenagers hotwiring cars and driving them at speed in apparent “tributes” to a teenager who was killed while travelling in a stolen car in Cork last weekend.
The videos were published on TikTok and SnapChat on the same day as Johnny Foley, 16, was buried. He died last Saturday when the stolen Toyota Corolla in which he was a front seat passenger crashed head-on into another car.
