The Late Garda Gary Mc Louglin

The Minister for Justice and the Garda Commissioner have expressed their sadness at the death of a garda from injuries he sustained in a collision in Co Donegal yesterday.

24-year-old Garda Gary McLoughlin died in hospital early this morning following a collision at Lisfannon in the early hours of yesterday morning.

Two garda detectives saw a car drive off at high speed at a filling station near Buncrana in northeast Donegal at around 1.30am.

He pulled his patrol car onto the side of the road, beside a ditch to avoid an Opel Astra coming at him at speed.

The Astra went out of control and crashed into the driver’s side, where Garda McLoughlin was sitting.
