The scene at the Marshes Shopping Centre last night
A man in his 20s was taken to hospital following a road traffic accident at the Marshes Shopping Centre last night.
The incident happened around 9pm when the BMW car he was driving left the road and crashed into the car park of the centre.
Two units of the fire service attended the scene and had to use cutting equipment to the free the man from the vehicle.
He was subsequently removed to Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital in Drogheda with a suspected broken leg.
It marked a busy evening for the fire service who earlier on had attended a fire at a derelict house opposite St Vincent’s Secondary School in Seatown. The blaze was quickly brought under control, however, having been confined to a small area of the house.
