Teenager charged after death of man in Fort William

A teenager has been arrested and charged in connection with the death of a 25-year-old man in Fort William.

Officers were called to an incident in Grange Road at about 9.55pm on Thursday.

“I’m aware this incident will be of concern to the local community but I would like to reassure the public that additional patrols are in the area as part of the ongoing investigation and there is no wider threat to the community.”
