Thiago Cortes was killed while working for Deliveroo Dublin city.

The fiancée of a man killed in a hit and run in Dublin is appealing to the driver to come forward.

Thiago Cortes (28), who was from Brazil, was knocked off his bike on the Quays on Monday and he died in hospital yesterday.

The driver fled the scene and Gardai have since recovered the car.

A vigil for the Deliveroo worker took place in Dublin city yesterday evening - Thiago had only been working for the company for ten days.

His fiancee Teresa Oliveira is appealing for information.

''If you did it, please come forward, be brave to do this,'' she said.

''You were driving a car, you hit someone and you left him there to die - just please face what you did, come forward.

''And if you know something, it wasn't you but you know something, if you have any information, please tell the gards, say something''.
