Four people have been killed and two critically injured in three separate accidents on the North’s roads.
The deaths bring the number killed in the province this year to 26, double the number for the same time last year.
In the most serious incident, two men were killed when a jeep and car collided on the Favour Royal Road outside Augher, Co Tyrone, last night.
A woman passenger in the car was taken to hospital where she is in a critical condition.
In Bangor, Co Down, a 22-year-old man died when the car in which he was a passenger hit a tree on the Belfast Road, near the Springhill slip road.
The driver remains in a critical condition in hospital.
Earlier, a man was killed when part of a tree hit his car on the A4 road between Ballygawley Roundabout and Dungannon in Co Tyrone.
Fire officer Colin McGuigan said: “It appears a large branch of tree fell on the front of or on top of the car. When we arrived there was a scene of carnage.”
