A pensioner has died following last Monday’s road crash near Ballintra.

The man, who is understood to be a visitor from the US, had been taken to Sligo General Hospital as a result of his injuries.

However, the man, who was in his 70s, is believed to have passed away last night.

The accident, between a hire car and a truck, occurred before lunchtime on Monday on the N15 close to the Ballintra/Rossnowlagh Crossroads.

The road has been the scene of a number of serious accidents over the years.

The driver of the truck was unhurt but treated for shock at the scene.
