Three children were among those injured in a two-car crash on the A90 in Aberdeenshire.

Three children have been injured following the crash in Aberdeenshire.

A 50-year-old male driver of a white Audi A5 and a 27-year-old female driver of a Vauxhall Astra were seriously hurt in the collision near Fraserburgh at about 5.50pm on Monday.

Both drivers were taken to Aberdeen Royal Infirmary for treatment as were the children, who were in the Astra.

Sergeant Scott Deans, of the road policing unit, said: “Our thoughts are with the families involved in this collision as we continue to establish the exact circumstances.

“We have spoken to several witnesses but would still like to hear from anyone who saw the incident take place, potentially has dashcam footage, or saw either of the vehicles just prior to the crash.

“If you saw a white Audi A5 or a white Vauxhall Astra being driven on the A90 around 5.30pm yesterday, please contact us.”

Anyone with information should contact police on 101, quoting incident 2759 of 9 November.
