The three people who died in a crash in Co Tyrone yesterday were a brother and sister and their aunt from the Strabane area.

They were killed on the A5 Tullyvar Road when their minibus collided with a lorry.

The three people who died in the crash near Aughnacloy, County Tyrone yesterday have been named as Dan McKane, his sister Christine Duffy and their aunt Julia McSorley. They were all from the Strabane area.

Four other people who were travelling in the same minibus as them were seriously injured and remain in hospital.

The family had been returning home after attending their aunts funeral in England.

The accident took place on the busy A5 road linking Dublin and the north west.

A long-proposed upgrade to the road has been delayed and 51 people have been killed on the A5 since 2007.
