Tributes have been paid to a 13-year-old boy who died in a quad bike crash.

Tiaran Trainor was fatally injured on Thursday in the incident on Low Road near Killeavy and later died in The Royal Victoria Hospital.

His Gaelic club Killeavy GAA said: ‘All here are heartbroken at the tragic death of our U14 player Tiarnán Trainor. A young life taken too soon

‘Our heartfelt condolences to his devoted parents Conor & Majella and to his loving grandparents and the extended Trainor and Campbell families.

‘Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

‘Our Club will be open tomorrow for our younger playing members to provide support and to anyone that wishes to visit. This will be communicated to you all via our Club groups.

‘Tiarnán you will be so fondly remembered by us all here

‘Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam.’

His school St Paul's High School in Bessbrook also paid tribue.

‘Tiarnán was a much loved and popular Year 10 pupil who was recently elected by his peers to serve on the Student Council. Tiarnán had an infectious personality and was well known throughout the school as a lorry fanatic. He took full part in last year’s Ski Trip and enjoyed a number of weeks last summer at Coláiste Mhuire Loch an Iúir in the Donegal Gaeltacht.

‘We extend our heartfelt sympathies to Tiarnán’s family, to his friends and to everyone who knew him. May the Lord grant rest to his eternal soul. St Paul, pray for him.’
