Nine-year-old Ronan Wilson from Dunamore Road, Cookstown, will be laid to rest following Requiem Mass in St Mary's Church, Dunamore, at 12 noon.

A death notice on Funeral Times describes him as the ‘loving son of Emma and Dean’ and the ‘precious brother of Calum and Amy’.

Ronan was a popular member of Kildress Wolfe Tones GAA club which has been providing support for his teammates since the tragedy.

There has been an outpouring of grief in the local community following Ronan's death.

Local SDLP MLA Patsy McGlone said: “The whole community in Kildress and across Tyrone is broken hearted today. The Wilsons are a well-known local family and this tragedy has shocked us all.

“My thoughts are with Ronan’s family and friends as they come to terms with this devastating news.

"I know everyone in Kildress and further afield will be thinking of them and will rally around them in the days ahead.

“I would appeal firstly to the driver to come forward to the Gardaí. Do the right thing by this family and by our community. I would also ask anyone with dash cam footage in the Atlantic Way area at around 9.20pm to bring it to the Gardaí as soon as possible.”

Sinn Féin MP Francie Molloy extended his ‘deepest sympathies’ to the Wilson family.

"The entire community is absolutely heartbroken. No family should have to endure such tragedy. RIP,” Mr Molloy said in a Tweet.

A 20-year-old man has been charged in connection with the incident.
