A man in his 40s has died following a road crash in Co Clare this morning.
The since-vehicle crash happened shortly before midday on the N18 at Cratloekeel.
The man, who was the only person in the car, sustained serious injuries and was brought to University Hospital Limerick, where he later died.
Gardaí say a post-mortem examination will be carried out at a later date.
The N18 at Cratloekeel between Junction 5 Cratloe and Junction 4 Limerick remains closed this evening to facilitate a garda forensic examination.
Gardaí have appealed for any witnesses to the crash to contact them at Henry Street Garda Station on 061 212400, or any garda station.
