Several outlets say two men, aged 31 and 48, and a 23-year-old woman were pronounced dead at the scene.

Emergency services sent rapid response paramedics and multiple crews to the crash involving a red BMW, a grey Volkswagen and a white Audi.

Police and ambulance services were on scene and inquiries are ongoing.

The community is absorbing the loss.

All of the major reports list the same victims by age and gender: a 23-year-old woman and two men, aged 31 and 48, were pronounced dead at the scene, while four others sustained injuries.

Coverage differs on the status of the injured: several outlets say three of the injured were taken to hospital, with The Irish Independent and FilmoGaz naming Craigavon Area Hospital and the Royal Victoria Hospital in Belfast.

FilmoGaz also reports one injured person was described as in 'significant shock' and did not require admission.
