A mother of two who tragically died in a hit-and-run terror has been locally named Ann Bathe.
The 48-year-old man was found on Thomas Street with serious leg injuries following the shocking incident in Newbridge, Kildare on Monday.
Sadly, Ann was rushed to Naas General Hospital, but was pronounced dead shortly thereafter and a man was arrested in connection with the collision.
She was a well-known person in the area and Gardai believes she was heading home when she was cut off.
Ann is originally from Kilcullen in the county and the mother of two children who are now considered adults.
