Gardaí appeal for witnesses to fatal motorbike accident
The late Christian Rasmussen
INVESTIGATING gardaí are renewing their appeal for witnesses following a fatal road traffic collision on the M50 in west Dublin that occurred on the afternoon of Sunday 9 March.
A Danish man who’d been living in Carlow for several years, Christian Rasmussen, was killed of his motorbike as a result of the accident. Mr Rasmussen was a motorbike enthusiast who was well known in the biking community in Co Carlow and beyond.
Shortly after 12.30pm, gardaí and emergency services were alerted to a collision between Mr Rasmussen’s bike and a car on the southbound carriageway of the M50 near Junction 7 at the Lucan/Palmerstown exit.
Gardaí continue to appeal for any witnesses to this collision to come forward.
In particular, gardaí are appealing to any road users who may have camera footage, including dashcam, and were travelling on the M50 in either direction at the time to make this footage available to them.
Anyone with any information is asked to contact Ronanstown Garda Station on 01 6667700, the Garda Confidential Line on 1800 666111 or any garda station.
