There will be heartbreaking scenes in Strabane today for the joint funeral of a brother and sister who were killed in a road crash in Co Tyrone last Thursday.

Dan McKane and Christine McKane (pictured above) died when the minibus they were travelling in collided with a lorry on the A5 just outside Aughnacloy on Thursday morning.

Their aunt Julia McSorley also died in the crash and was laid to rest yesterday.

Seven members of their extended family had been travelling together.

They were on their way home after attending the funeral of a family member in England.

Four other family members were injured and two remain in hospital.

The funeral mass of Christine and Dan McKane will take place at the Church of the Immaculate Conception in Strabane at noon today, followed by burial in Strabane cemetery.
