A 73-year-old cyclist has died after colliding with a deer on an unclassified road near Ord on the Isle of Skye.
David Anthony Young died after coming off his bicycle after hitting the wild animal earlier today.
The road was closed to allow for collision investigation to be carried out at the scene.
Sergeant Chris Murray said “Our thoughts are with David’s family and friends at this difficult time and ask that their privacy is respected.
“Our inquiries into this tragic incident are ongoing, and I would appeal for anyone who saw David this morning, who has not already spoken to police to contact us on 101, making reference to NP2208/18”.
