A woman has died and a second pedestrian was injured in a road collision in west Belfast at the weekend.
Police said the two pedestrians were struck by a car in the Hannahstown Hill area on Saturday evening.
Inspector Cherith Adair, from the collision investigation unit, said police received a report about the incident shortly after 6.50pm on Saturday.
She said: “Officers attended, alongside our colleagues from partner emergency services, and established that the vehicle had been involved in a collision with the pedestrians and a second vehicle.
“Sadly, one of the pedestrians, a female in her 70s, later died from her injuries in hospital.
“The second female pedestrian received treatment for injuries which are not believed to be life threatening while the vehicle drivers were uninjured.”
She said detectives are investigating the circumstances of the collision and are appealing to anyone who may have witnessed the collision or to anyone who may have captured dash-cam or other footage of the vehicles involved – a silver Volkswagen Tiguan and a grey Ford Kuga – to contact detectives on 101.
