Appeal following fatal crash on A90 between Perth and Dundee

Police Scotland is appealing for witnesses following a fatal crash in Tayside.

Officers were called to the A90 eastbound carriageway near to Inchture at around 2.15pm on Thursday, 20 January, 2022 following a crash involving a white Citroen C1 and an HGV lorry.

The 27-year old male driver and sole occupant of the Citroen C1 died at the scene. His next of kin have been informed but formal identification is yet to take place.

The lorry driver was uninjured.

Inspector Greg Burns, of Dundee's Road Policing Unit, said: “Our thoughts are with family and friends of the man who died. We are carrying out enquiries to establish the full circumstances of what happened.

“I would ask anyone who may have witnessed the collision, or who may have dash-cam footage to contact us as soon as possible.

“Lane one of the eastbound carriageway was closed for a number of hours and I would like to thank motorists for their patience while we carried out our investigation into this serious collision.

“Anyone with information should call Police Scotland on 101, quoting incident number 1725 of 20 January, 2022.”
