A woman in her 20s has died in a crash in Loughlinstown, Dublin, on Saturday.

The woman, a pedestrian, was struck by a car on the N11 Bray Road at around 11.50pm.

She was pronounced dead at the scene.

The coroner has been notified and the scene preserved for technical examination. Traffic diversions are in place.

Gardaí have appealed for witnesses to the incident to come forward.

Any road users who may have camera footage from the area at the time have been asked to make it available to investigating gardaí.

The woman was the third person to die on Irish roads on Saturday, after two men, in their 20s and 30s, died in a two-car crash in Birchill, Co Donegal. 

Four other people, a man and a woman in their 20s, and a man and a woman in their 40s, were hospitalised for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries.
