The PSNI have revealed that a man has died after a two-vehicle collision in east Co Tyrone.
The crash happened on the Tamlaght Road just on the edge of Coagh village at about 4.35pm on Sunday, October 20.
The victim was Brendan Conlan, from the Cookstown area, who was age 83.
Inspector Cherith Adair from the PSNI’s Collision Investigation Unit said: “A grey coloured Peugeot 208, which was driven by Brendan, was involved in a collision with a red coloured Volkswagen Caddy.
"The driver of the Volkswagen Caddy, a man aged in his 40s, was taken to hospital for non-life threatening injuries. Brendan was also taken to hospital for treatment, but has since sadly passed away from his injuries.
“Officers from the Collision Investigation Unit are examining the circumstances of the collision, and would like to hear from witnesses, or anyone who may have captured dash-cam or other footage.
"It is believed that a transit-style van was at or near the scene of the collision and officers would ask the driver of this vehicle to come forward.
