The death of a 6 year-old boy is being investigated in Derry-Londonderry.
Shortly before 10.30am six year old Donnacadh Maguire was found significantly injured in the road.
He was taken to hospital where he subsequently passed away.
Inspector O’Brien said: “While it is possible that Donnacadh’s injuries were sustained as the result of a collision with a vehicle, we are working to establish exactly what happened and we are keen to speak to witnesses.
I would ask anyone who was on Tyrconnell Street this morning between 10am and 10.30am to please get in touch with officers in Strand Road.
A man has been arrested and remains in custody this evening assisting police with their enquiries.
Tyrconnell Street remains closed at this time.
