Investigations are continuing this morning into the deaths of a woman and two children in a road crash in Co. Mayo.

It happened on the N17 at Castlegar near Claremorris at lunchtime yesterday, when the car they were travelling in hit a truck.

They're understood to be a mother and her two daughters and were from Galway.

The girls were both aged under 10.

Cathaoirleach of the Claremorris-Swinford Municipal District, Gerry Murray, says people there are devastated.

"This sort of an ordeal over the next few days and indeed indefinitely you know this is a huge huge tragedy for all involved or particularly for the family that are impacted by this."
