Man killed in wall collapse at farm near Linlithgow has been named

A man killed when a wall collapsed on top of him at a farm near Linlithgow has been named locally as Peter Walker, from Blackburn.

He was one of two men tragically killed as a result of the accident at Myrehead Farm on Monday morning. Another two workers were injured and treated in hospital but it's not thought their injuries are life threatening.

One was taken by ambulance to the Edinburgh Royal Infirmary, while the other was airlifted to the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow.

Police are still probing the deaths of two men after the wall collapsed at the farm near at Whitecross.

Chief Inspector Damian Armstrong, Local Area Commander for Falkirk said: "My thoughts and sympathies are with the families of those affected by this incident and a multi-agency inquiry at the farm is ongoing.

"If anyone believes they have any relevant information that may be of use to this investigation then please come forward and quote incident 1081 of the 6th May."
