A woman has died in a farm accident in Co Armagh.

It happened a few miles outside Armagh city and it is understood she was injured by a cow.

UUP councillor Jim Speers knows the woman and described her death as "an absolute tragedy".

“Our thoughts and prayers are with her family. This is another tragic example of how dangerous farming can be, but at this moment the community will be focusing on providing sympathy and support to the family.”
