Eyewitnesses saw 'fireball'
A double fatality on the Mountain Road at the weekend was the result of a 'catastrophic' head-on collision, say police.
Investigations into the incident, which involved three motorcyclists, are continuing.
Sergeant Allan Thompson of the Roads Policing Unit says a mushroom cloud seen from the Bungalow alerted emergency services to the collision.
Eyewitnesses have spoken of seeing a fireball.
