A man who died following a traffic collision in Ballina, Co Mayo, has been named locally as James Moyles.
He was taken to Mayo University Hospital for treatment, but died there yesterday evening.
His niece, who was also injured in the incident, was treated for non life threatening injuries at MUH, before being subsequently discharged from hospital.
Mr Moyles was from the Parkside area of the town and has been described by Independent Councillor Mark Duffy as a "lovely guy" who was well known to people in the locality.
Cllr Duffy said the thoughts and prayers of the entire community were with his family and friends at "this most incredibly difficult time".
