A 15-year-old girl has been killed following a crash in Co Tipperary last night.
The girl was a passenger in a car involved in a two car collision at Rearcross.
At approximately 6:45 pm, Gardaí and Emergency Services responded to a two-car collision on the R503.
A 15-year-old girl, a passenger in one of the cars, was pronounced deceased at the scene a short time later.
