Derry father-of-three killed in Donegal road tragedy

The cyclist killed in a collision with a van in Co Donegal yesterday morning was Adrian Mullan, from Derry.

The 42-year-old, from Amelia Court in the Ballyarnett area of the city, was one of two cyclists involved in the accident which occurred at Moneydarragh on the Gleneely to Redcastle Road at around 9.15am.

The other cyclist was taken to Letterkenny General Hospital for treatment to injuries which are not thought to be life-threatening.

The van driver was not injured but was treated for shock.

The Derry-based Foyle Cycling Club and the North Pole Cycling Club in Inishowen have cancelled planned events as a mark of respect.

Mr Mullan is survived by his wife Patricia, daughters Gemma and Rachel and son Joshua.

He is the son of Mary and the late Aiden Mullan and a brother of Thomas, Majella and the late Joseph.
