"Our investigation is ongoing and we are working tirelessly to determine the exact circumstances of this tragedy," he said.
"I would continue to appeal generally for anyone with information to come forward and more specifically I would ask anyone who saw a silver Mercedes saloon car being driven in the Clones Road area of Newtownbutler, or between Maguiresbridge and Newtownbutler, on the evening of Tuesday, July 22, to call detectives on 101, quoting reference 276 23/07/25.
