SIX people are in hospital following a serious crash between a motorbike and a motorhome in the Highlands.

Emergency services were called to an incident involving two vehicles at around 11.10am on Friday on the A837 at Skiag Bridge, south-east of Lochinver.

The crash involved a Fiat Ducato motorhome and a black and green Kawasaki motorbike.

A 37-year-old woman, who was the rider of the motorbike, was taken to hospital and has been described as seriously injured.

The driver and passengers of the motorhome, three females aged between one and 64 and two boys aged three and seven, were also taken to hospital for treatment.

The condition of the passengers of the motorhome is currently unknown.

Police enquiries are on going and they have urged anyone with any information or dashcam footage to come forward. 

Sergeant Calum MacAulay, of the Dingwall Road Policing Unit, said: “Our enquiries are ongoing and I would ask anyone who witnessed what happened or who saw either vehicle on the road prior to the crash to get in touch.

“We would be keen to speak to anyone who may have dashcam footage from the area around the time of the incident.

“Anyone with information is asked to call 101, quoting incident number 1066 of 9 August.”
