At approximately 7pm, emergency services attended the scene of a separate road traffic collision on Summerhill Parade.
Another male pedestrian, aged in his 40s, was hit by a car and taken to the Mater Hospital but later died from his injuries.
Gardaí are appealing to the public, who may have information on any of the two crashes, to come forward.
They're particularly keen to seek information from those who may have camera or dash-cam footage.
