Cllr Barney Fitzpatrick said: “I would like to extend my sympathies to the family of this man and wish those who were injured a speedy recovery. This must be an absolutely terrible time for the family of the man who died and it’s also terrible for person who was driving the police car.
“Another life has been tragically lost on the roads this year. There needs to be a full and open enquiry into the circumstances surrounding this crash because of the involvement of a police car.”
