POLICE are appealing for information following a fatal crash on the B981 between Crossgates and Inverkeithing.

The incident took place yesterday (Wednesday) at around 6.10pm near to the junction at Clockluine Road, Hillend.

It involved a silver Volkswagen Golf and the 52-year-old male driver of the vehicle was taken by ambulance to the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh.

He died a short time later and his family have been informed.

The road was closed for about four hours while an investigation was carried out.

Sergeant Lee Walkingshaw said: "We are providing support to the family of the man who died as our enquiries continue to establish the full circumstances of this crash.

"This occurred during daylight hours on a busy road, and I would ask anyone who may have witnessed the collision or have dash-cam footage that could help our investigation, to please come forward as soon as possible."

Anyone with any information should contact Police Scotland on 101, quoting incident 3103 of Wednesday, June 19.
