A man in his 20s was arrested this morning by Gardai investigating the fatal hit-and-run of a man cycling a bicycle in Galway on Wednesday.
John White, a 68-year-old Loughrea man who was cycling, died as a result of the collision with the driver of a BMW at around 8.30pm on the Gort Road in Loughrea, Co Galway.
...I'm sorry to disrupt you while you're reading this article, but without messages like this, IrishCycle.com's reader-funded journalism won't survive. With nearly 1/2 million views and 300k readers so-far this year, it's not just people who are dedicated to cycling that this website reaches. However, the number of subscribers is around 0.6% of readers. While having a large gap between readers/subscribers is standard for non-paywall reader-supported journalism, IrishCycle's journalism needs more support. Don't delay, support monthly or yearly today. Now, back to the article...
The Garda press office said that the man in his 20s “is detained under Section 4 of the Criminal Justice Act at Loughrea Garda Station and can be detained for up to twenty four hours”.
...That's the end of the article. Keep scrolling if you want to the comments, but IrishCycle.com *NEEDS* readers like you to keep it that way. It only requires a small percentage of readers to give a bit each month or every year to keep IrishCycle.com's journalism open to all. Thank you.
