Another tragic lost of life on our roads as an 8 year old boy has died in hospital after being hit by a car while walking to get the school bus with his mother and five siblings in Cloughmills. The boy was Adam Gilmour. His mother and four of his siblings needed hospital treatment. It has also been revealed by North Antrim MLA Jim Allister that he had been contacted by the mother three weeks ago, as she was concerned about her children having to walk along that road. He said she warned that "because the education and library board was failing to provide transport for her children, they would be 'wiped out' some morning on the road.
