Police Chief Sir Stephen House In Crash Apology

Scotland's police chief has apologised to the families of a couple who lay for three days in a crashed car despite the accident being reported days earlier.

Lamara Bell, 25, was seriously injured and her boyfriend, John Yuill, 28, died in the crash near Stirling, which was reported to police on Sunday but not followed up for three days.

Sir Stephen House speaks to Clyde News Reporter Laura Brannan.

Police Scotland Chief Constable Sir Stephen House said today that he had apologised to both families.

He also revealed the call wasn't followed up on as the information received wasn't correctly logged onto their system.

In a statement, he said: Firstly I want to apologise to the families of John Yuill and Lamara Bell and to the people of Scotland for this individual failure in our service. Everyone in Police Scotland feels this most profoundly.''
