The collision occurred on February 8th.
A girl who was seriously injured in a midlands crash last week has died.
The 6-year-old was taken to Temple Street Children’s Hospital following the single-vehicle collision shortly before 4pm on Thursday, February 8th, 2024, on the M6 eastbound between Junction 4 (Tyrellspass) and Junction 3 (Rochfortbridge) in Westmeath.
She died in the hospital yesterday.
Gardaí say the Coroner has been notified, and arrangements are being made for a post-mortem examination.
Two other occupants in the car at the time, a man in his 40s and a 9-year-old boy, were not seriously injured.
Gardaí in Mullingar are renewing their appeal for witnesses. Those with camera footage (including dash-cam) from the M6 between Junction 3 and Junction 4 at the time of the collision are urged to provide this footage to investigating Gardaí.
Anyone with information is requested to contact Mullingar Garda Station on 044 938 4000, the Garda Confidential Line on 1800 666 111, or any Garda Station.
