An 86-year-old man is fighting for his life following a two-car crash in Aberdeen.

The smash happened on the A96, Great Northern Road, near to Station Road, at around 7.15pm on Sunday.

Both drivers were taken to the city’s royal infirmary for treatment, where the pensioner is in a critical condition.

Police are appealing for information about the crash, which involved a grey Audi and blue Renault Clio.

Sergeant Scott Deans said: “Our thoughts at this sad time are with the families of those involved in this collision.

“We have spoken to several witnesses but would still like to hear from anyone who witnessed the collision or who saw the vehicles beforehand, or if they have information about a dark-coloured car that passed the collision location at that time. 

“Anyone with any information or dashcam footage of the vehicles involved or the collision itself who has not yet come forward should contact us by calling 101 or anonymously through Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.”
