A man has died following a two-car crash on a motorway in Fife.

The victim, who was a front seat passenger of a silver Renault Grand Scenic, died in hospital following the smash on Sunday night.

The incident took place on the M90 northbound, around 1.5 miles north of Junction 4 near Kelty, when the Renault was involved in a collision with a Seat Leon car after striking the central reservation of the road.

The injured man was taken to Ninewells Hospital in Dundee for treatment but was later pronounced dead.

Enquiries are now ongoing to establish the victim’s identity.

The road fully reopened around 6.30am on Monday after a police investigation was carried out at the scene.

Inspector Greg Burns said: “We are carrying out inquiries to establish the full circumstances of this collision and would urge anyone who can help to contact police.

“We would be interested in speaking to anyone who may have seen these vehicles on the road before the collision or who may have passed the scene immediately following the incident.

“Anyone who was on the M90 and using a dashcam is asked to review their footage and let us know if you may have anything which could assist our investigation.

“Anyone with information can contact Police Scotland on 101, quoting 3379 of 5 January, 2020.”
