Three siblings of a 14-year-old girl, Jennifer Hoban, who died of injuries resulting from being struck by a bus, have accepted an undisclosed settlement from Dublin Bus.
Jennifer Hoban was struck by a bus while crossing Killinarden Way in Tallaght on November 5th, 1997 and died shortly afterward from her injuries. Her two brothers and sister, who are now adults, suffered prolonged grief following the accident. A case was taken against Dublin Bus through the children’s father, Thomas Hoban, for compensation damages for psychiatric injury.
Dublin Bus made the settlement without admitting liability.
