Woman killed in horror smash on Highlands road as two taken to hospital

A young woman has been killed in a horrific crash in the Highlands.

The 24-year-old was a passenger in a blue Citroen C3 when it collided with a grey Honda CVR at around 3.15pm yesterday, October 12.

Emergency services raced to the scene on the A82 at Borlum Farm, Drumnadrochit and police closed off the road.

Despite desperate efforts of medical staff, the woman sadly died at the scene.

The driver of the Citroen, a 27-year-old man, and the 56-year-old female driver of the Honda, were both taken by ambulance to Raigmore Hospital in Inverness.

The man is described by medical staff as serious but stable and the woman is stable.

Police reopened the road after 9.30pm.

Sergeant David Miller, Road Policing Unit, Highlands and Islands, said: "Although we have spoken to a number of people who stopped following the crash, we are still keen to hear from anyone who saw the crash or possibly the cars on the road just prior to the collision.

"We're also looking for any dash-cam footage of the area at the time.

"Information can be passed to Road Policing Officers at Dingwall Police Station via 101. Please quote reference number 1838 of 12 October 2020 when calling."
