A Co Antrim crash has taken the life of a teenage boy, the PSNI confirmed on Monday.
The crash, which has also left a 10-year-old child in critical condition in hospital, was one of four fatal incidents that took place over the weekend, bringing the death toll to five.
Police say the two-vehicle crash occurred on the Belfast Road, Nutts Corner, on Sunday morning (26th April).
A 16-year-old boy, who was a passenger, was pronounced dead at the scene.
A PSNI spokesperson said: “Police received a report of a collision involving a Black Volkswagen Golf and a silver Volkswagen Passat shortly before 8am.
“Officers attended alongside emergency partners, and a male passenger in the Passat, who was aged 16 and from the Tipperary area, passed away at the scene.
“The driver of the Passat sustained minor injuries, while two other passengers are still in hospital, including a 10-year-old child who remains in a critical condition.”
The driver of the black Golf has been arrested on suspicion of a number of motoring offences.
The Belfast Road, which was closed most of Sunday, has now reopened.
The PSNI spokesperson added: “Our enquiries are continuing, and we would appeal to anyone who witnessed the collision, or who may have digital footage which could assist with our investigation, to contact the Collision Investigation Unit on 101, quoting reference number 348 of 26/04/26.”
