41 year old Niamh Hand went missing from her home in Roosky on Friday.

After failing a roadside breath test, he was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence.

It follows the Roscommon Roads Policing Unit stopping a articulated lorry yesterday travelling over the speed limit near a school.

The man in his 40s was pronounced dead at the scene.

Two men, aged in their 20s and 40s and a woman in her 50s were arrested.

Anyone who noticed anything suspicious in the area on the night in question is asked to contact their local Garda Station.

The men, both aged in their 40s, remain in custody at a Garda Station in Longford at this time.
