A teenager has been admitted to hospital and four other people have been injured in a Co Tipperary crash.

At around 10.50am, two cars were involved in a collision on the N62 into Thurles town, located just off the M8 motorway.

A male juvenile teenager has been taken to Limerick University Hospital to be treated for serious injuries.

Two males in their late teens and two women in their late 40s and 50s were also taken to Limerick University Hospital to be treated for injuries which are not believed to be life-threatening, gardai said.

The road had been closed pending an examination and has since reopened.

Garda are appealing for any witnesses to the collision to come forward.
