A tragic road traffic collision in County Antrim has claimed the lives of three people, including a pregnant woman and her unborn baby.
Details of the Fatal Incident
The incident occurred on Sunday, January 11, at around 2pm on a road near Nutts Corner in Crumlin, close to Belfast. The collision involved a blue Ford Fiesta and a silver Skoda Superb.
