“A 44-year-old man who was the driver of the Honda, was taken to hospital for injuries not believed to be life-threatening at present,” a PSNI spokesperson said on Saturday.

“Our investigation is now underway to establish exactly what happened.



“We would appeal to anyone who witnessed the collision or who may have dash-cam footage to contact police on 101.”

Tributes have been paid to Oisin, with Erne Gaels Belleek postponing all club activities as a mark of respect.

The club also said it extended its “heartfelt condolences” to the Gregg family on the “heartbreaking passing of Oisin”.

GAA club, Devenish St Mary’s, also sent its sympathies “following the tragic and untimely death of Oisin”.

“We extend our sympathies to the wider family circle and our thoughts and prayers are with them now and in the time ahead,” the club said.

North Defenders Young Defenders said Oisin had been a drummer with the band for six years.

“It is with deep sadness and regret that we have lost not only a member of our band, but someone we have been lucky enough to call our friend.

“Oisin has been a part of our band since he was 12-years-old, he joined up in October 2017, firstly learning to play the flute & then in June 2018, he decided he wanted to try drumming.
