Gardai have launched an investigation after a male cyclist in his 20's was hit by a car in north Dublin on Saturday morning.
The incident happened on Naul Road, at the rear of Dublin Airport at around 7:45am. Video footage of the incident circulating online shows three males in a car driving on the road.
As they approach the cyclist, a passenger says "watch, watch, watch" to the driver. After the car makes contact with the cyclist, a passenger says "go, go." They then appear to drive away from the scene.
