Post mortems to take place later this week on the four young people killed in Tipperary town crash

Thousands of people turned out for a vigil in Clonmel last night in honor of the four young people who died in a crash in the Tipperary town.

Grace McSweeney, her brother Luke, Nicole Murphy, and Zoey Coffey were killed while on their way to celebrate their Leaving Cert results.

Post mortems will take place later this week on their bodies.

Clonmel Mayor Richie Molloy says locals wanted to express their sympathy to their families:

“When this nightmare occurred, it brought home to us that it’s always there when you go on the road at night, are you going to return? And I think this is a way of the community coming out and showing their feelings to the four families involved.”
