An 11-year-old girl has died following a collision outside Castledawson in Co Derry yesterday afternoon.

The girl was struck by a car after exiting a schoolbus on the Hillhead Road shortly after 4pm.

Inspector Cherith Adair from PSNI Collision Investigation Unit said: “There was a large number of people in the vicinity at the time who may have recorded video footage of the scene. I would ask anyone with footage not to share it on social media, but instead forward it to police through the Major Incident Public Portal. This footage will be of great assistance to officers investigating the collision.

“The Hillhead Road has reopened following this serious collision and our investigation continues. Anyone with any information, dash-cam footage or images taken at the scene can also call on 101, quoting reference number 1038 05/03/25.”
