The two other occupants of that car were taken to hospital with minor injuries, but the woman was pronounced dead at the scene. Two occupants of a second car were uninjured, and the 18-year-old man driving the other vehicle was arrested at the scene.

He will appear before the district court in Cashel, Co Tipperary at midday tomorrow.
