GARDAÍ AND EMERGENCY services attended the scene of a serious road traffic collision in Co Galway this morning.
The single-car collision occurred on the R358 at Treanrevagh, Mountbellew, shortly after 2am.
A man in his 30s was taken to University Hospital Galway to be treated for his injuries, which are understood to be serious but not life-threatening.
Two other men, one in his 30s and the other in his 20s, were taken to University Hospital Galway to be treated for their injuries.
The road was closed for a period to allow for a technical examination to take place. It has since reopened.
Gardaí are appealing to anyone who may have witnessed this collision to contact them. Any road users who were travelling in the area and have camera (including dash cam) footage, are asked to make this available to gardaí.

Lived there for many years. Left after 3 muggings……1 at knifepoint. Most knife crime there is focused in a certain community but people and police are reluctant to point this out as they fear being called racist
Stab capital London. No end in sight
@GloryManUnited2019: it was never as bad here as it is there in fairness!
@Dave Dublin: Be fair Dave, Not all English people are like that.
That’s what you call a scatter gun approach.
That would be justified if the victim had 39 stab wounds
@Paul: one is guilty the others are preventing the police from finding out the truth. They be charged with, with holding evidence, interfering with an investigation etc.
@Paul: what a stupid comment…..
@Jim Buckley Barrett: One or more may the alleged attacker/s. No guilty until tried and convicted
@Paul: be
@Pat O Brien: I hope the victim recovers but I think arresting 39 people at a party who may know nothing is a bit excessive
@Paul: or who may know everything
@Paul: all were in proximity to the alleged attackers and all refused to cooperate, which makes all potential accessories after the fact.
@Paul: ah Paul come on don’t be so naive
39 people arrested for attemped murder. Sounds like the plot of an Agatha christie novel.
How big was the knife?
Was he Julius Caesar?
Arrested 39 people my arse.
@Bluey: your point? Try and use full meaningful sentences.
@Jim Buckley Barrett: Did it upset you Jim?
@Bluey: are you implying that they didn’t in fact arrest 39 people and despite initially refusing to cooperate that they all then simultaneously had a change of heart and voluntarily accompanied the police to various stations to give statements?
@Jim Buckley Barrett: I think his point could be he believes the police to be economical with the truth. That’s what the “39 my arse” would indicate to me anyway could be wrong like
have your say
