A MAN HAS died following a collision involving two motorcycles on the Conor Pass, also known as An Chonair, in Co Kerry on Sunday afternoon.
The crash happened at An Clochán on the R560 at around 4.45pm yesterday.
One of the motorcyclists, a man in his 50s, was pronounced dead at the scene.
The driver of the second motorcycle, a man in his 60s, and his female passenger were taken by ambulance to University Hospital Kerry with non-life-threatening injuries.
The road has been closed overnight to allow Garda Forensic Collision Investigators to carry out a technical examination.
Gardaí have appealed for witnesses, particularly anyone who was travelling in the area between 4.30pm and 5pm and may have dash-cam or other camera footage.
“Anyone with information is asked to contact Tralee Garda Station on 067 7102300, the Garda Confidential Line on 1800 666 111, or any Garda Station,” a garda spokesperson said.
