'Person swept away' at Scots river amid severe weather sees search launched

Emergency services have launched a large-scale search for a person who is believed to have been swept away in a Scots river during severe weather.

Record sister site Aberdeen Live reports that emergency services have begun a search in the area of Monymusk, north east of Aberdeen, following reports of a person swept into the River Don. It has been suggested that the person may have been trying to rescue a dog at the time, as reported by Sky News, though these reports are currently unconfirmed, as is their gender or age.

The hunt was launched sometime after 3pm on November 18, with Police Scotland and HM Coastguard involved.
