We are very sad to announce that Joe O'Connell, a man many of our readers will know, has been tragically killed in a car accident with his wife Ann in the U.S.
The full details of what happened can be read at Independet.ie, with the following being an excerpt from that piece:
At the time of the crash, the family's people carrier was being driven by their 15-year-old daughter Sarah, who was gaining experience behind the wheel months after getting her learner's permit, according to the Iowa State Patrol in the US.
The two older children Sarah and brother Colman (13) were discharged from hospital last night.
The youngest child Maeve (10) was described as critical but stable in paediatric intensive care at the University of Iowa hospital following the smash on the four-lane stretch of highway on Sunday evening.
Our thoughts go out to their family and especially the three children they leave behind.
