Three people killed and one arrested after horror Highlands crash

Three people were killed and one person arrested after a road crash in the Highlands on Friday.

Emergency services raced to A828 Oban to Fort William road, near Castle Stalker at around 2.30pm following reports of a collision involving a silver Honda Civic and a black HGV.

The three male occupants of the Honda died at the scene.

A fourth male occupant was taken to Queen Elizabeth University Hospital with serious injuries.

Cops have now said a 47-year-old man has been arrested in connection with a road traffic offence and released pending further enquiries.

The road was closed until around 2.25am on Saturday to allow investigations to be carried out.

Sergeant Kevin Craig said: “At this time, our thoughts are with the families and friends of the deceased men.

“I would also like to thank the public for their patience and understanding as officers attended the scene and carried out their enquiries.

“We are continuing to investigate the circumstances surrounding this crash and would ask anyone with information, or who witnessed anything, to contact officers via 101 quoting incident 1976 of Friday, 19 August, 2022."
