THE UNIVERSITY of Limerick has paid tribute to one of its students
after she sadly passed away in a road traffic collision earlier this
week.
Shauna McGrath was travelling home from a nightshift at University
Hospital Waterford when her car was involved in a collision with a
lorry.
The 22 year-old's vehicle collided with the lorry at 8:30am on Tuesday.
She was sadly pronounced dead at the scene.
The Waterford native had been on placement in her hometown and was due
to graduate from UL soon as a midwife.
