Gary was travelling in the direction of Banbridge when his Yamaha motorcycle was involved in a collision at approximately 9:45am that Sunday.

Police are appealing to anyone who has not yet spoken to them and has information that could be useful to the investigation, to get in touch as soon as possible.

“Any witnesses to the collision, or anyone who has dashcam or helmet footage and was travelling on the Castlewellan Road between 9.30am and 10am and observed the motorcycle prior to or at the time of the collision, should contact officers in the Collision Investigation Unit on 101,” said a police spokesperson.

“We are particularly interested in hearing from people who were on the stretch of road between the school at Ballydown, near the Lisnaree Road and the T-junction where the Aughnacloy Road meets the Castlevennon and Katesbridge roads. This is a well-known junction, where there is a filling station and shop, as well as a farm equipment supplier,” said the spokesperson.

Police would also like to speak with the drivers of a number of vehicles which were in the area at the time as they believe they may have information that could help with their enquiries.

They are a red Ford Focus, a black Ford Kuga, a red Vauxhall Zafira and a silver Mercedes.
