A second person has died in hospital after a horror crash outside a Scots town. The woman, aged 84, died on Tuesday October 15 in hospital after a man who was also in the same vehicle died on Sunday October 6.
The incident happened around 2.25pm on Thursday October 3, approximately half a mile south of the Dutch House Roundabout, Monkton, and involved two cars, a silver Mercedes A200 and a red Renault Captur.
Emergency services raced to the scene, and the driver and passenger of the Renault Captur, an 82-year-old man and an 84-year-old woman, were taken to the hospital, where they later passed away.
Sergeant Martin Cunningham of Irvine Road Policing said: “Our thoughts are with the family and friends of the two people who died at this very difficult time. Enquiries remain ongoing to establish the full circumstances and we are appealing to anyone who has not already spoken to officers to get in touch if you can assist.
“If you were driving in the area and have dash-cam footage that could help with our investigation then please contact us.”
Anyone who can help is asked to call Police Scotland on 101, quoting incident number 2036 of 3 October 2024.
