A race car in Bailieborough, Ireland went out of control on a rural Irish road and crashed into a crowd of spectators. Two people were killed and seven were seriously injured as a result of the car accident.
After the driver lost control, the car crashed through a fence and into the crowd. The two wrongful death victims, a 29 year-old woman and a 50 year-old male, were pronounced dead at the scene.
The accident shed light upon some of the dangers of these annual high-speed contests on the hedge-lined, narrow country roads of Ireland. At least four others have been killed as a result of accidents in similar races in the past. Police are investigating whether a mechanical failure or driver error caused the most recent car accident. The car involved, a Ford Escort, went over a bump in the road, lost control and then flew midair before it landed in the crowd of people.
