A pedestrian who died following a road collision in Co Armagh has been named as 36-year-old Anthony James Atkins.
Police believe that Mr Atkins was lying on the Cullaville Road in Crossmaglen when he was struck by a car shortly after midnight on Saturday morning.
Mr Atkins lived in Crossmaglen, but was originally from England.
Police said the driver of the car involved in the collision remained at the scene and has been assisting officers with the investigation.
PSNI Detective Inspector Michael Winters said: “I would firstly like to offer my condolences to Anthony’s family and friends at this terrible time.
“In order to complete a full investigation on their behalf I would continue to appeal for anyone who was travelling on the Cullaville Road on Friday night/early Saturday morning around the time of the collision and who saw anything or captured dash-cam footage which could assist us with our inquiries, to contact the Collision Investigation Unit on 101, quoting reference 2078 01/11/24.
“I would also ask anyone who met Anthony earlier on Friday and who could help us trace his movements throughout the evening to please get in touch.”
