A woman has died in a crash in Linlithgow, sparking an appeal for witnesses by police.

The collision happened at around 5.15pm yesterday on the A803 Blackness Road at its junction with the M9 motorway and involved three cars - a grey Vauxhall, a pink Kia and a black Vauxhall.

A female passenger in her 70s from one of the Vauxhalls was taken to Forth Valley Hospital where she sadly died. No-one else was injured.

Police Sergeant Roger Park of Police Scotland’s Trunk Road Patrol Group said: “This collision happened during the busy rush hour and I would appeal to anyone who was travelling on the A803 and either witnessed the incident or saw any of the vehicles beforehand to contact police on 101.”
