A second teenager has died following a fatal car crash in Fife.

Connor Aird was a passenger in a black Vauxhall Corsa that crashed near Kirkcaldy last Sunday, killing another, Ethan King, who was 18.

Police Scotland say the 17-year-old died at Edinburgh's Western General Hospital on Friday evening.

An 18-year-old man remains in hospital following the single-vehicle collision on the A915 Standing Stane road.

A fourth man, also aged 18, was arrested after the crash, which occurred at about 8.45am.

Sergeant Nicola Young said: ''Tragically a second young person has lost their life and our thoughts remain with his family and friends, as well as those of the other injured parties, at this difficult time.

I would again appeal to anyone who may have information to assist our inquiries, and has not yet spoken to officers, to come forward at their earliest convenience.''
