Police seek information on fatal Dungannon collision

DETECTIVES from the PSNI Collison Investigation Unit are renewing their appeal for witnesses to a fatal collision in Dungannon on Friday, December 20.

Inspector Cherith Adair said, “Police received a report, shortly after 6.30pm, that a pedestrian had been struck by a vehicle.

“Officers attended, alongside our colleagues from partner emergency services. Sadly, the pedestrian later died from their injuries in hospital.

“Our enquiries are ongoing, and we believe that the driver of the vehicle may be able to help our investigation.

“This dark coloured Audi was being driven in the Ballygawley Road – leading to John Street – area at the time of the collision, and we believe the driver could be a key witness.  I want to emphasise that there is no suspicion of any wrongdoing on the part of the driver, and that we only need to speak to them as we think they can help.

“If you think this may be your vehicle, or you can provide any other information which could assist, please contact us on 101, quoting reference 1324 of 20/12/24.”
