There’s an appeal for information after a serious road traffic collision on the A947 Turriff to Fyvie road at the north entrance to Fyvie today (Thursday March 9, 2017).

The collision, which occurred at around 7.20am, involved a black Vauxhall Corsa, driven by a 17 year old male, and a blue Toyota Hilux crew cab, driven by a 27-year-old male.

As a result of the collision the 17 year old male was airlifted and the 27 year old male was taken by Ambulance to Aberdeen Royal Infirmary where they are both being treated for serious injuries.

Sergeant Rob Warnock, from the Inverurie Road Policing Unit, said: "Enquiries into the circumstances of the incident are at an early stage and I am appealing to anyone who witnessed the incident or saw either the black Vauxhall Corsa or blue Toyota Hilux crew cab prior to the incident to contact police.

"In particular we would like to speak to the driver of a blue BMW vehicle which had been travelling southwards at the time of the collision. This vehicle was seen overtaking just prior to Fyvie. The occupant(s) may have information which could help the investigation and I would appeal for them or anyone who saw this vehicle to contact us.

"I would also ask anyone who has any information which would assist our investigation to contact Police Scotland on 101."
