“The pedestrian (age not confirmed at this time) was pronounced dead at the scene. The occupants of the truck and car were unharmed.

“The road is currently closed and forensic collision investigators are on site. There are local detours.

“Gardaí is asking for witnesses to this collision to come forward. Gardaí is also asking road users to be able to have camera footage (including the dash cam) traveling in the area at the time so that these images are available for Gardaí.
