The teenager who lost his life after a horror crash in Cork, which also saw five other people injured, has been named locally as Johnny Foley.
The 16-year-old, who is from the Spur Hill area of Cork city, was a passenger in a car that was involved in a two-car collision which took place at around 1am on Saturday on the M8 at Ballybeg in Mitchelstown.
Four others travelling in the same car were all taken to Cork University Hospital (CUH) where they are receiving treatment for non-life-threatening injuries while a woman in her 30s who was driving the other vehicle suffered serious injuries.
