A woman who passed away in a car crash just a few days after Christmas has been named by police.
Gillian Murray, 57, was pronounced dead at the scene after her red Ford Fiesta was involved in a three car smash near Longhaven, Aberdeenshire, on Wednesday, December 28. Police Scotland officers are now appealing for information over the smash, which also involved a blue Isuzu D-max, a white Ford Kuga.
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: "Officers are appealing for information following a fatal crash near Longhaven, Aberdeenshire. Around 10.35am on Wednesday, 28 December, 2022, police were called to a report of a three vehicle crash on the A90, Aberdeen to Peterhead road.
"The crash involved a blue Isuzu D-max, a white Ford Kuga and a red Ford Fiesta. The driver of the Ford Fiesta, Gillian Murray, 57, was pronounced dead at the scene. The driver of the Isuzu, a 19-year-old woman and the driver of the Ford Kuga, a 72-year-old man, were uninjured. The road was closed for around nine hours while investigations were carried out."
Sergeant Eoin Maxwell, of the North East Road Policing Unit said: “Our thoughts are with the family and friends of Gillian Murray at this time. Investigation into the collision is still ongoing and I would ask anyone who has not already spoken to police or anyone that has dashcam footage of the vehicles to contact Police Scotland.
The appeal was posted on Police Scotland's North East Police Division Facebook page this afternoon. Anyone who has information about the crash should contact Police Scotland by telephoning 101 and quoting the reference number 0920 of 28 December, 2022.
