Cyclist dies in Dublin crash

A man has been killed in a crash in Dublin this morning.

The male cyclist, believed to be in his 30s, died on Harold's Cross Road when he was hit by a cement truck.

No one else was injured in the crash, which happened at about 10.30am.

The road was closed earlier today in both directions from Leonard's Corner at the Upper Clanbrassil Street junction to the canal bridge to allow Garda forensic investigators examine the scene.

It has now reopened.
