A man was fatally injured following a road traffic accident in Graiguenamanagh, Co Kilkenny which saw a car dramatically plunge into the River Barrow.
The accident happened on Wednesday December 29 last when the car left the road and went into the River Barrow at the Quay in the town at around 10.35pm.
There were unsuccessful efforts to save the man who is believed to have been from the locality and aged in his fifties.
His remains were removed from the car some hour later by sub aqua divers and brought to Waterford Regional Hospital for a post mortem examination.
The car was taken from the river later the next morning.
