The scene of the crash

A black 54 plate Range Rover had left Reasty Road which is also known as Reasty Hill. 

It was located by 999 crews at the bottom of a steep embankment.

Sadly, a man was pronounced dead at the scene.

A 38-year-old woman was also taken to hospital with serious injuries.

Police are now appealing for anyone who may have witnessed the incident, seen the Range Rover driving in the area beforehand, or who may have dashcam footage, to get in touch.

Anyone with dashcam footage is asked to save it “for officers to review in due course”.
