The man, thought to be in his late thirties or early forties, died when he was struck by a car on Main Street in the Connemara village just before 2 o’clock this morning

Local people indicate he may be a Scottish man working in the Connemara area

A local man in his early 30s was arrested at the scene and a file is to be sent to the Director or Public Prosecutions
