Authorities in Ireland have launched an urgent appeal for witnesses following a serious incident involving a car and a woman pushing a buggy. The collision occurred around 4.30 pm on the R617 road, which runs between Blarney and Tower, County Cork. The woman, who is in her 30s, and her infant were quickly transported to Cork University Hospital. Fortunately, the woman's injuries have been described as non-life-threatening, and remarkably, the baby was unharmed. A member of the local fire brigade referred to the outcome as a 'miraculous' escape for the child. A spokesperson for An Garda Síochána confirmed that emergency services responded promptly to the scene after receiving reports of the road traffic collision. They stated, "Gardaí and emergency services attended the scene following a report of a road traffic collision involving a car and two pedestrians, that occurred at Blarney, Co. Cork, this afternoon, Tuesday 21st October 2025, at approximately 4.30 pm." The Garda spokesperson added, "The pedestrians, (a woman aged in her 30s, and a male infant) were conveyed to Cork University Hospital for treatment of injuries believed to be non-life-threatening at this time. No other injuries were reported at the time. The scene was preserved for technical examination. The road has since reopened." Authorities are now appealing for anyone who witnessed the incident or who may have been driving in the area with dashcam footage to come forward. This information could be crucial in understanding the circumstances surrounding the collision.
