A 19-year-old student has passed away as a result of injuries sustained from a fall at a Limerick home.
Sophie Coll, a University of Limerick student, had transferred to the campus from NUIG and it’s thought that the tragic incident happened at rented student accommodation.
A spokesperson for the college said that the fall happened four days ago and Sophie was immediately taken to University Hospital Limerick.
RTÉ reports that the UL representative confirmed that Sophie since passed away from head injuries and described the tragedy as ‘an entirely freak accident’.
The college explained that second-year business student Sophie, from Barna in Galway, had changed college recently.
