“I would also ask any other members of the public or motorists who were in the area at the time to get in touch with us with any information they may have, even if it doesn’t seem significant, let us be the judge of that.”
Anyone with information is asked to call Police Scotland via 101, quoting incident number 1330 of Saturday, 24 February, 2024.
