Garda forensic experts will continue examining the scene of a fatal two-car crash in Cork this morning.

One man, in his early 20s, died and another suffered critical injuries in the collision at Leemount Cross in Ballincollig last night.

One car with five men in their early 20s on board collided with a second car occupied by two women in their late 20s.

The road remains closed and diversions are in place.

It is not expected to re-open before 12pm.
