Pat FlynnA man has died after he was struck by a car on the N18 in County Clare early on Saturday morning. The incident occurred at around 4.15am in the northbound lanes of the dual-carriageway at junction 5 near Cratloe. The man was struck close to the flyover near Portdrine while the car came to a stop about 100 metres away. In November 2007, a man in his 60s died after he struck by a car as he crossed the same section of dual-carriageway. That tragic incident occurred just a few hundred metres from the scene of this morning’s incident.
