At the scene, the driver and three unidentified passengers were pronounced deceased.
“This is an unspeakable tragedy for the families involved and for the wider community, who will understandably struggle to comprehend such loss of life,” stated District Commander Superintendent Paul McGrattan.
“A thorough and sensitive investigation is now under way, and anyone with information that could assist us is asked to get in touch with the collision investigation unit.”
