A man accused of causing the fatal hit-and-run death of a 16-year-old boy in Co Kildare tells Gardaí that damage to his van was caused by a deer, a trial hears. The case is being heard at Naas Circuit Criminal Court. The court hears that Kedagh Moore was fatally injured following a collision about 250 metres from his home at Graigues, Robertstown, near Kildare town. The prosecution alleges the man’s actions amount to a hit-and-run resulting in the teen’s death. In evidence, the accused gives an alternative explanation for the damage to his vehicle, stating it was caused by a deer rather than by any collision with the teenager. The reported accounts of the hearing focus on where the collision occurred, the teen’s age, and the accused’s explanation for the van damage put to Gardaí. No final outcome is reported in the provided sources.
