A young man is in critical condition in hospital after a crash in Lurgan.

The crash involved a Suzuki scrambler and Audi A3 Sport TDI at a roundabout on Lake Street in the town shortly after 3pm on Thursday.

The man, who is in his 20s, was the passenger in the scrambler and was taken to hospital.

Police are appealing for witnesses.

“The road was closed for a time to facilitate emergency services. However, it has since fully reopened to traffic.

“Our investigation is underway and anyone with information about what happened, or who has dash-cam or other footage can contact police on 101, quoting reference number 963 15/08/24.”
