...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...

According to the Garda-run Meath Crime Prevention page on Facebook: “Trim Gardai are looking for a bit of assistance if possible. There was a report of a hit and run yesterday 19 October where an 11 year old boy was rear ended on his bicycle on the Moynalvy to Larchill road in Summerhill. The car is best described as an old looking red saloon. The incident occurred at approximately 2pm.”

They added: “If possible could everybody share this and if there was anybody in the area around the time of the incident or have any dash cam footage please call Trim Garda Station on 046-9431222. Any help would be greatly appreciated.”


...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.
