The search included Gardai attached to the Roscommon/Longford Drugs Unit, the North Western Armed Support Unit and local Gardaí.

While it’s not known if there will be any protests outside Leinster House today, the Gardai are not taking any chances.

The GRA President has stated that a more permanent solution will be needed in the future.

This marks the sixth death on Irish roads since Friday.

The motorist came to the attention of Gardaí as they noticed the car speeding during wet road conditions.

It's understood the car involved had come to the attention of Gardaí shortly before the crash.

Anyone with information about these incidents is asked to contact Roscommon Garda Station.

Gardai marked cash to see if they would be taken and they allegedly were.
