GARDAÍ ARE APPEALING for information into a hit and run that occurred in Ennis last week.

Members of the Clare Roads Policing Unit continue to investigate a hit and run that saw a young cyclist dragged into the middle of a road by a black ford focus on Wednesday (March 15th).

Between 5:25pm and 5:40pm, a young lady was cycling her bike on the Dunnes/Friars Walk roundabout between Dunnes Stores and glór when she was struck by a vehicle that was coming from the Temple Gate side. She was dragged into the middle of the roundabout and the vehicle left in the direction of Dunnes Stores towards Station Road.

According to Gardaí, the car that failed to stop is described as a small black Ford Focus 2005 to 2011 model with an L or N plate in the rear window. The young lady wasn’t seriously injured in the incident but was hurt and shaken.

The Roads Policing Unit are asking anyone who witnessed this hit and run or anyone that may have camera or dash cam footage to contact Ennis Garda Station on 065 6848100.
