Two young men have been killed in a four car crash in County Tipperary.

Two women, both in their 20s who were in a second car, were taken by ambulance to Tipperary University Hospital, Clonmel where their injuries are non- life-threatening.

Six others were medically assessed at the scene and did not need immediate hospital treatment.
