One person has died after a car crash in the early hours of December 31 in Aberdeen city centre.
Emergency services were called to Wapping Street at its junction with Denburn Road shortly before 1am, following reports of single vehicle collision. Tragically the driver could not be saved and was pronounced dead at the scene, reports Aberdeen Live.
Police cordoned off the street while the vehicle was removed and investigations were carried out; images from the scene showed officers looking at debris while the red Ford Fiesta hatchback was loaded onto a flatbed lorry to be taken away. The closure lasted for approximately 10 hours but the road has now re-opened.
