'A vigil and special mass will take place this evening after three family members died in the road crash'

There are fresh calls for an urgent upgrade to the A5/N2 dual carriageway which takes in bordering counties Tyrone and Monaghan after the latest fatal crash.

Three family members died when the minivan they were travelling in collided with a lorry at Aughnacloy yesterday. Dan McKane, his sister Christine, and their aunt Julia McSorley were traveling home from a funeral in England.

A special mass will be held at St. Mary's Church in the village later. Parish Priest Fr. Cathal Devenny says some locals can't bring themselves to go. Fr Devenny said, "It's touching the hearts of everyone, because we've all been on that road and either witnessed or experienced something of that nature before and it stays at the back of your mind."
