A Co Tyrone woman has died following a road crash at the weekend.

Police have named the victim as Oonagh Burns, 35, from the Strabane area, who was driving a car which crashed close to Bready on Sunday.

Inspector Cherith Adair issued an appeal for witnesses.

She said: “35-year-old Oonagh Burns, from the Strabane area, was driving a white Seat Leon on the Victoria Road when it left the carriageway close to the junction with the Grangefoyle Road, at around 1.40pm on Sunday afternoon.

“Sadly, Oonagh was pronounced dead at the scene. Victoria Road was closed for a number of hours following the collision but has now reopened.

“Our investigation is under way and I would ask anyone who was travelling in the area at the time of the collision to review any dashcam footage they may have captured and to make contact with the PSNI Collision Investigation Unit at Sprucefield by calling 101, quoting reference number 813 07/04/24.

“You can also submit a report online using the non-emergency reporting form via http://www.psni.police.uk/makeareport/.”
