Meeting follows teen’s road death

SUGGESTIONS for better safety measures in Blackskull will be taken to local police following a meeting of local residents.

Upper Bann MLA Jo-Anne Dobson said that while the issue had been discussed in previous meetings in the area, the recent death of 15-year-old David Preece made it a priority.

“Following the recent tragic death of David Preece I had been lobbied by a considerable number of constituents for an urgent meeting to take place between members of the local community and officials from the Lurgan PSNI Neighbourhood Policing Team and Roads Service,” said Mrs Dobson.
