A 66-year-old man has died in hospital following a crash in Co Tyrone last month.

David Gilmore, from the Portadown area, had been riding a motorcycle which was involved in a collision with a black Hyundai Tucson on the Curr Road in Beragh on September 17.

The driver of the car did not require medical treatment, police said.

“Mr Gilmore, who was riding a motorcycle, was involved in a collision with a black Hyundai Tucson on the Curr Road, adjacent to the Moylagh Road turn-off,” she said.
