A5: Teenagers killed in single-vehicle crash

TWO teenagers have died as a result of a single vehicle road traffic collision on the A5 Doogary Road last night.

A 19-year-old male and a 17 year-old female died at the scene of the collision which happened about four miles outside Omagh.

Diversions were in place and the road was closed in the area throughout the night. It has since re-opened.

Inspector Cherith Adair, from the Collision Investigation Unit, said, “We received a report of a single vehicle road traffic collision at around 9.50pm, involving a blue BMW. Officers attended, alongside colleagues from NIAS.

“Our investigation is continuing, and we are appealing to anyone who was travelling in the area and has dash-cam footage, to contact the Collision Investigation Unit on 101, and quote reference number 1806 of 30/04/24.”
