:Jonathan was taken to hospital by ambulance following the collision but tragically died from his injuries a short time later.

โ€œA week has now passed since the collision and I am continuing to appeal to anyone who has information which could assist us with our investigation to get in touch.

โ€œI would ask any motorists who were driving in the Rathfriland, Hilltown, Kilcoo or Castlewellan areas last Thursday night to review any dash-cam recordings they may have for footage of the silver Mitsubishi Shogun, similar to model pictured, being driven in any of those areas.

โ€œI am also particularly keen to speak with anyone who may have seen or spoken to Jonathan at any time between 7pm and midnight last Thursday night.โ€

โ€œIf you can help our investigation please contact officers on 101 quoting reference number 23 01/10/21.โ€
