Gardaí are appealing for witnesses after a cyclist was killed in a road crash in County Clare this Saturday afternoon.
The fatal incident happened on the L3180 at Toonagh, close to the village of Tulla this Saturday lunchtime.

"Gardaí and emergency services attended the scene following reports of the collision, involving a tractor and a bicycle, which occurred at approximately 12.45pm. The cyclist, a woman aged in her 70s, was pronounced deceased at the scene," said a spokesperson.

The woman's body has since been removed to the mortuary at University Hospital Limerick where a post-mortem examination will take place in due course.

Gardai say there were no other injuries reported at the time and that investigations into the incident are ongoing.

Motorists are being advised the road is currently closed for technical examination by Garda Forensic Collision Investigators.
Investigating gardaí are appealing for witnesses to come forward and any road users who may have camera footage and who were travelling in the area between 12noon and 1pm are asked to make the footage available.

Anyone with any information is asked to contact Ennis garda station on (065) 684 8100, the Garda Confidential Line on 1800 666 111, or any garda station.
