Police have confirmed the identities of the two men killed in a crash in Aberdeenshire yesterday.
Paul Grice and Grahame Ellis were travelling on the A93 Banchory to Aboyne road when they crashed near Aboyne Loch Caravan Park about 9.50pm last night.
Emergency services arrived at the scene shortly afterwards and discovered a red Volkswagen Golf had left the road and struck a tree.
Both men were pronounced dead at the scene.
Road Policing Inspector Jon Barron said: “Both families have been left devastated by the sudden and tragic loss of their loved ones.
“We have already spoken to a number of witnesses, however I would urge anyone who may have seen the vehicle involved or who may have information that would assist our enquiries into the horrific circumstances to come forward. Police can be contacted on 101.”
