Kian's death has prompted heartfelt tributes from his school, St Columb's College, and his football club, Don Bosco's FC, where he was described as a 'genuine, well-mannered and unassuming' individual. The driver of the vehicle sustained serious injuries and is currently in critical condition at the Royal Victoria Hospital. Local authorities are investigating the incident, and Gardaí have called for witnesses, especially those with dashcam footage, to come forward.
