A woman has died following a crash in Co Donegal.

The two-vehicle collision occurred at Quigley's Point at approximately 11.15pm on Friday, according to gardaí.

A woman aged in her 30s, who was a back-seat passenger in one of the vehicles, was fatally injured in the crash.

Her body has been removed from the scene to Letterkenny University Hospital, where a post-mortem examination is due to take place.

The driver of that car, a woman aged in her 70s, and the front-seat passenger, a man in his 50s, were taken to Altnagelvin Hospital in Derry and Letterkenny University Hospital with “non-life-threatening injuries”.

The other vehicle was driven by a male teenager, who was injured.

The road remained closed for a forensic examination of the scene on Saturday morning.

Gardaí are appealing for any witnesses to the collision to come forward.
