Road policing officers are appealing for information following a serious crash in the North Street area of New Elgin.

The incident happened around 8.05pm on December 9 and involved a red Fiat Punto and a pedestrian.

Emergency services attended, and the pedestrian, a 55-year-old man, was taken to Dr Gray’s Hospital in Elgin before being transferred to Aberdeen Royal Infirmary.

He remains in hospital where medical staff describe his condition as critical but stable.

The road was closed for collision investigation and re-opened around 6.50am.

Sergeant Eoin Maxwell said: "Enquiries are ongoing to establish the full circumstances, and I’m appealing to anyone who may have seen anything that will help our investigation to contact us.

“We are also keen to speak with any other motorists who may have possible dashcam footage from the area around the time in question.”

Anyone with information is asked to call Police Scotland via 101, quoting incident number 3303 of 9 December.
