The town of Charleville has been plunged into sadness following the tragic death of a teenage boy from the town in Kerry

16 year-old Darragh Byrne was visiting Conor Pass with his parents on Tuesday when he fell from a height.

Darragh's grandmother Mary Fehilly was killed in November after she was struck by a car which mounted the footpath on Charleville's Main Street

Speaking to RedFM News Evelyn O'Keeffe from Charleville Community Forum says it's a double tragedy for the family

"They're barely over the grief of their grandmother if not you know grief goes with you for a long time, and this, this is unbelievable. And such a tragedy  to happen so close to each other, you know, so you'd have to really feel for all the members of the family and extended families of the Byrne and Fehilly families"
