Inspector Martin Ruddy said, "I’m appealing to anyone who was on the Lisnevenagh Road around the time of the collision and witnessed what occurred to get in touch with us. 

"We’re also appealing to anyone who was travelling on the road at the time and may have Dash Cam footage they believe could assist with our investigation to contact police in Ballymena on the non emergency number 101, quoting reference 1004 10/10/17."
