Photographer Adrian O’Sullivan told TheJournal.ie that the 64 Chevy Impala broke down in the middle of Patrick Street in Cork on Friday. Everyone remained in good spirits despite the mishap, he added.

HERE ARE THE things you need to know as we round off the day in three easy steps.

THINGS WE LEARNED

#SHOOTING: Twenty-year-old Dublin native Jamie Lindsay was shot dead at a housing estate in Athy last night. Gardaí in the Kildare town have now launched a full murder investigation.

#GOOD IDEA: Gardaí are to benefit from a new Revenue arrangement which will see the taxman gift the organisation with vehicles that have been seized because of serious offences such as smuggling and fuel laundering.

#WAR: Officials in Afghanistan have claimed that a NATO airstrike killed 10 children and one woman on Saturday. The military body said it was aware of the reports and an investigation is underway.

#HOTLINE: Patients at Tallaght Hospital have been asked to make appointments for blood tests through a premium-rate telephone number. The Adult Phlebotomy Department said the system is being implemented to improve the patient experience and reduce waiting time.

#BAD NEWS: Less than 24 hours after winning the Grand National, jockey Ryan Mania was airlifted to hospital following a serious fall during a race at Hexham. The 23-year-old Scot is being treated in Newcastle. It is thought he took a kick between his shoulder blades but he can move all his limbs and is conscious.

#TRAGEDIES: Two people died in accidents today. A man in his 30s lost his life in a road collision involving a motorcycle and tractor in Cavan this morning. And, this afternoon, a swimmer who was rescued from Dublin Bay passed away at Tallaght Hospital.

#KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON: The British Foreign Secretary has urged calm over the current North Korean crisis. William Hague told the BBC that international powers shouldn’t ‘play to the paranoid rhetoric’ coming from Pyongyang, adding that he could not see a need to move diplomats out of the country.

THINGS WE LOVED

• Except maybe pictures of Alf Stewart in a tux. He scrubbed up well for last night’s Australian television awards, the Logies.

THINGS WE SHARED

• The story of Tojo the Monkey in Clonakilty.
• Puente Hills is a huge landfill – so big it could hold every car produced in America for the past fifteen years – in Los Angeles. The Atlantic took a tour and it makes for really interesting reading.
• Have you made a dating faux pas recently? Maybe this instructional video from the 1950s will help your love life? It probably won’t but it will give you a giggle.
