An 85-year-old man has died in hospital five days after he was involved in a road crash in Wester Ross.

Roderick Sutherland, from the Tain area in Easter Ross, was a passenger in a silver Mazda that crashed on Friday on the A832, near Dundonnell.

The other occupants of the Mazda and those travelling in a white Fiat 500 were taken to Raigmore Hospital in Inverness.

"Our inquiries are ongoing and as with any incident of this nature a report will be submitted to the procurator fiscal in due course."
