Motorcyclist dies after three-vehicle crash

A motorcyclist has died following a three-vehicle crash in Aberdeenshire.

The collision happened on the B977 at Banchory at around 2.05pm on Tuesday.

Police said a 35-year-old man riding a Triumph motorbike was taken to hospital where he later died.

The people in the other vehicles, a Toyota C-HR car and a Citroen Berlingo van, were not injured.

Police are appealing for information about the crash.

Sergeant Alexander Bowser-Riley said: “Our thoughts are with the family of the man who died and our inquiries into the circumstances are ongoing.

“I am appealing for anyone who saw the crash and who hasn’t already spoken to officers to get in touch.

“I would also ask anyone who was in the area at the time and may have dashcam footage which could assist to contact us.”

The road was closed for investigations after the collision and reopened at around 10pm.

Anyone with any information is asked to contact 101, quoting reference 1778 of March 25.
