Tributes to Irish victim of 4x4 smash horror in Bolivia

- BY NICOLA DONNELLY & OWEN CONLON

TRIBUTES have flowed for an Irish tourist killed when a 4x4 overturned, with a pal saying he was “one of the loveliest” people.

Oisin Hoy, 29, from Clontarf in north Dublin, was among a group of seven in a Toyota Land Cruiser when the accident occurred on Bolivia's famous salt flats on Friday afternoon.

Officials said the group was on their way to a local volcano when the vehicle flipped over and travelled for a further 40 metres before coming to a halt.

Oisin was being brought to the nearby city of Potosi when he died en route. Five others were also injured.
