Cases
latest first- Man jailed for four years over drink-driving deaths in Limerick Dangerous driving causing death · Co. Limerick
On 20 February 2024, Patrick Carroll, then 19, was driving a car on the N69 at Ballyengland, Askeaton, Co Limerick, after drinking in two pubs in Kildimo, when the vehicle crossed to the other side of the road and crashed into a wall, killing passengers Darragh Dullea, 20, from Clonakilty, Co Cork, and Cillian Kirwan, 19, from Piltown, Co Kilkenny. All four occupants were students at Salesian Agricultural College, Pallaskenry, and Carroll's blood alcohol level was almost three times the legal limit. Carroll pleaded guilty at Limerick Circuit Criminal Court in March 2026 to dangerous driving causing the deaths of both men and to driving under the influence of alcohol. On 3 July 2026, Judge Simon McAleese sentenced him to four years in prison and disqualified him from driving for eight years.
