A mother of three has died after she was hit by a scrambler in West Belfast.

The 35-year-old was struck by the bike at around 6 o clock on Tuesday evening while out walking her dog at Colin Glen Forest Park on the outskirts of West Belfast.

Valerie Armstrong passed away peacefully last night, surrounded by her family.

A 17 year old boy is due in court in connection with the incident, while a 15 year old boy has been released on bail.

Detectives are urging anyone who was in the area at the time to get in touch.

Police say they're aware of an ongoing problem - locals have complained about scramblers and quad bikes being used dangerously in the park.
