It comes just one week after two teenagers died in the water in Co Donegal.

The sole occupant of the second vehicle, a woman in her 50s, was also taken to the hospital for assessment.

The Sligo Detective Unit searched a residential property in the Cranmore area and found a total of 7.5kg of cannabis.

The drugs seized will be sent to Forensic Science Ireland (FSI) for analysis.

Gardaí and emergency services attended the scene and the road is currently open.

29 year old Sasha Murray, originally from Maugherow was one of 15 people rescued, sustaining an injury to her leg.

A cairn at Carrowkeel in County Sligo was badly defaced last autumn with spirals, circles, and the names of mythological gods scratched into the surface of the rock.

Gardaí said a male teenager, who had been driving the car, was pronounced dead at the scene.
