Pedestrian (30s) dies following incident involving bus in Cork city
A pedestrian in his 30s has died following an incident involving a bus in Cork city. The exact time and location of the collision were not immediately confirmed in what has been released so far. Gardaí would normally seal off the scene in a case like this and appeal for anyone who witnessed the event to come forward. Traffic on the route is likely to have been held up while the area was secured. A postmortem and a file to the coroner are standard steps after a death on the road and are expected to follow. Investigators will also want the bus driver's account and any CCTV footage from the street. Local representatives in Cork have raised pedestrian safety in the city centre before, and this death is set to push that discussion back onto the agenda. Further details are expected once gardaí complete their initial inquiries.
