Gardaí appeal for witnesses to fatal road incident on Dublin’s Naas Road

Gardaí have reissued an appeal for information following a fatal crash last Sunday on the Naas Road in Dublin 22.

A man in his 20s was getting out from a vehicle when he was fatally struck by a second car at about 12.20am.

The driver of the first car and a passenger from the second car, both men in their 20s, were taken to hospital for non-life threatening injuries.

A man, aged in his 20s, who was arrested by gardaí, has since been released. A file will now be prepared for the Director of Public Prosecutions.
