A man has died after three vehicles collided on the Edinburgh bypass.
A grey Volkswagen Transporter campervan, a grey Volkswagen Tiguan and a red Vauxhall Corsa crashed into one another on the A720 between Gogar roundabout and Hermiston Gait at about 9.10am on Thursday.
Emergency services attended and the driver of the Corsa, a 53-year-old man, was taken to the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh, where he died a short time later.
The driver of the Tiguan was taken to hospital with minor injuries. The driver of the campervan was not injured.
Police said inquiries into the circumstances of the crash are ongoing.
