Following a collision on the A82 close to Invermoriston, Police Scotland is requesting information.
Tuesday afternoon, just before 5 p.m., emergency services were summoned to the location. There were two cars involved: a blue and white BMW R1200RS and a black Toyota Hilux. An air ambulance took a 70-year-old man to Raigmore Hospital in Inverness. By road ambulance, a 57-year-old woman was brought to the same hospital. The 52-year-old man who was operating the pickup was unharmed.
Dash cam footage and information are being requested by the police to aid with their investigation. Anyone with information should get in touch with 101 and mention incident number 2685 from July 30.
