Tributes are being paid to the two young men who died in a road crash in Co Donegal on Friday night.
Ryan Glenn (25), and Gordy Galbraith, who was in his 30s, died when their car struck another vehicle in Liscooley at 10pm. Both men, who were from Castlederg in Co Tyrone died at the scene of the crash.
Three people from the other vehicle were also injured.
A woman and a man in their 70s were taken to Letterkenny University Hospital, where their condition is serious. Another woman in her 30s was also treated in hospital for non life-threatening injuries.
A talented footballer, tributes were paid to Mr Galbraith by Northern Ireland Intermediate side Dergview FC.
A club spokesperson said “The club would like to extend its deepest sympathies to the Galbraith family on the tragic death of Gordy and to the Glenn family on the death of Ryan.
“Gordy was a past player of the club at both youth and senior level and his two sons are currently playing with our Youth Academy. Our thoughts and prayers are also with the others involved in the accident.”
Local Fianna Fail county councillor Patrick McGowan, who lives just minutes from the scene, said the entire community was in shock.
Gardai are continuing their investigation into the cause of the crash on the N15 road in what were relatively good conditions on a straight section of road.
Head of the Garda Traffic Corps Inspector Seamus McGonigle has appealed to anybody who was traveling between Stranorlar and Castlefin between 9.30pm and 10pm on Friday night and may have noticed anything to contact gardaí.
The deaths of Mr Glenn and Mr Galbraith on Friday evening brings to 16 the number of people killed on Donegal’s roads so far this year compared to 10 for all of last year.
