Two children are in hospital this morning after a ‘serious collision’ involving an e-scooter and a jeep.

It happened on the Old Tramore Road at Greenfields in Waterford at around 3pm yesterday afternoon.

The two young boys were taken to Waterford University Hospital, where one of them is being treated for serious injuries this morning.

Gardaí are appealing for witnesses to come forward.

They are particularly interested in talking to road users who were in the Greenfields area between 2:30pm and 3:15pm and may have dash cam footage.
