## Resource

A serious crash near Ballinakill in County Laois left an elderly couple critically injured after a collision on the L7797 road—just as the driver of the other vehicle vanished into the night. Authorities are urgently seeking witnesses or dashcam footage from anyone who was in the area between 10 and 11 PM Friday, hoping to identify the fleeing driver and bring closure to victims’ families. The road was shut down for forensic investigation, and Gardaí urge the public to come forward—whether anonymously via the Confidential Line or directly to Abbeyleix Station—to help solve this troubling case.
