Teen in critical condition after single-car collision in Co Tipperary

The collision happened on the M7 between Birdhill and Nenagh around 9pm last night.

A MAN IN his late teens is currently in a critical condition following a single-car collision in Co Tipperary. 

The collision occurred on the M7 motorway between Nenagh and Birdhill. Gardaí were alerted to the incident shortly after 9pm last night and rushed to the scene. 

The driver and sole occupant of the car was taken from the scene to University Hospital Limerick via ambulance. 

The scene will now be examined by Garda Forensic Collision Investigators and traffic diversions are in place. 

The M7 is closed from Junction 26 to 27 as a result, with a diversion to the R445 in place. 

Gardaí have appealed for witnesses to come forward.
