Funeral to be held for Conall McAleer who died in Bundoran car crash

By David Hunter

A funeral will be held at mid-day for a young man from County Fermanagh killed in a crash in Donegal.

Conall McAleer - who was in his twenties - died when a car hit a wall in Bundoran on Sunday morning.

His friend Shiva Devine was also killed in the collision.

Conall's requiem Mass will be held in St Joseph's Church in Ederney.

The vehicle they were travelling in hit a wall at Eastend, Bundoran, in the early hours of Sunday morning.

Gardai said the pair who died, aged in their 20s, were passengers in the car.

They were originally from Co.Fermanagh, whilst the woman who died was a native of Donegal but had been living near Belleek in Co.Fermanagh. 

A woman and two men, also in their 20s, suffered serious injuries and are being treated in hospital in Sligo.

Pictures showed a blue car with severe damage to the front and back close to the base of a pole.

Garda forensic collision investigation officers attended the scene and the road was closed to traffic.

The Peugeot car appeared to have hit a yellow brick perimeter wall and partially demolished it.

The engine and a rear axle had dislodged and were lying in the street.

The vehicle came to rest a short distance away up the road.
