Overview
- A car plunged about 30 metres (roughly 100 feet) off the A-7 motorway near Málaga on June 28, killing three people at the scene.
- The victims have been named as Michaela Newcombe, Amy McCullagh and Mark McCullagh, all from Mullingar in County Westmeath.
- Ian McCullagh, husband of Amy McCullagh, survived but is still in critical condition in a Spanish hospital.
- Repose and funeral arrangements have been announced for this week in Mullingar and nearby parishes and the families have appealed for donations to the Kevin Bell Repatriation Trust to help repatriate the remains.
- Spanish authorities are continuing a formal inquiry, have extracted vehicle technical data and may seek judicial authorisation for tests, and no definitive cause—such as loss of control, mechanical failure, impairment or a collision with another vehicle—has yet been established.
