Police launch investigation after van and lorry involved in crash on Ayrshire road

Police have launched an investigation after a van and HGV were involved in a crash in Ayrshire yesterday.

Officers initially said a dog that was travelling in the van was killed in the smash at 9.30am on Ladywell Avenue in Girvan near to the junction with the B741.

But cops have since said the dog did not die. It's understood that the pet is now recovering from its injuries.

Police also initially said that the driver of the van was taken to hospital with serious but non life-threatening injuries. Officials were not able to provide an update on the condition of the man.

Police are now appealing for witnesses.

Sergeant Craig Beaver said: “We’re aware there were a number of other vehicles in the area around the time of the crash, so are appealing to anyone with information to come forward.

"We are also keen to speak with any motorists with potential dashcam footage.

“Anyone with information is urged to call police on 101, quoting incident 0762 of October 15.”
