The collision, involving a car and two pedestrians, occurred at Lower Main Street at approximately 3am.
A garda spokesperson said: “The two male pedestrians were conveyed to Letterkenny University Hospital for treatment of serious injuries.
“The driver of the car, a male aged in his late teens, was arrested at the scene, and remains in Garda custody.
“The scene is currently preserved for technical examination by Garda Forensic Collision Investigators, with local diversions in place.”
Gardaí are appealing for any witnesses to this incident to come forward.
“Any road users who may have camera footage (including dash-cam) and were travelling in the area between 2.30am and 3.30am this morning, Monday 17th March 2025, are asked to make this footage available to investigating Gardaí,” a spokesperson continued.
“In particular, Gardaí are appealing to anybody who was in the area between Dry Arch Roundabout and Oldtown Road at the time.
