A 40-year-old man is being treated in hospital for life-threatening injuries after a three-car crash on the A950 in Aberdeenshire.

The crash involving a red Nissan Pixo, a red Ford Fiesta and a black Ford Escort happened about a mile from Mintlaw shortly before 18:30 on Saturday.

The 40-year-old driver of the Escort was taken to Aberdeen Royal Infirmary where his condition continues to be described as life-threatening.

The female driver of the Pixo and two female passengers from the Fiesta were also taken to hospital for treatment of non-life threatening injuries.

The road was closed for about eight-and-a-half hours to allow for a police crash investigation and recovery of the vehicles.

“We would also be keen to speak to anyone who may have dashcam footage from the area."
