Man dead and woman hospitalised after crash in Co Tyrone

The incident occurred early this morning.

A MAN IN his 20s has died following a crash in Co Tyrone.

One woman was also brought to hospital for treatment for her injuries.

The Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) tonight confirmed that the 21-year-old-man died following a road traffic collision in the Cookstown area this morning.

Shortly after 6.45am, the PSNI received a report of a collision involving a grey Seat Leon and a grey Volkswagen Bora on the Pomeroy Road.

“Our officers attended alongside emergency service partners, however the male driver of one of the vehicles was sadly pronounced deceased at the scene,” Inspector Cherith Adair of the Police Service of Northern Ireland’s Collision Investigation Unit said.

Forensic examinations of the road were conducted which has since re-opened.

“Our enquiries are continuing, and we would appeal to anyone who witnessed the collision, or who may have digital footage which could assist with our investigation, to contact the Collision Investigation Unit on 101,” Adair said.
