Garda Appeal

Gardaí appealing for witnesses following collision in Tuam yesterday

A male in his late teens was taken to University Hospital Galway to be treated for his injuries

GARDAÍ ATTENDED THE scene of a serious road traffic collision that occurred at Russellstown, Miltown, Tuam, Co. Galway, yesterday.

At approximately 5:30 pm yesterday evening, gardaí were alerted to a road traffic collision involving a bicycle and a truck. A male in his late teens (a cyclist) was taken to University Hospital Galway to be treated for his injuries. He has since been transferred to Beaumont Hospital where his condition is described as serious.

The road was closed to allow for a technical examination to be conducted by Forensic Collision Investigators. This has since concluded and the road has reopened.

Gardaí in Tuam are appealing for witnesses to come forward and to those with camera footage (including dash-cam) to make it available to them.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Tuam Garda Station on 093 708 40, the Garda Confidential Line on 1800 666 111, or any Garda Station.
