A man has died in hospital after being found seriously injured outside a primary school in Greenock.
Emergency services found a 35-year-old man with serious injuries on Drumfrochar Road at around 7.20pm on Sunday.
He was taken to Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow, where he was pronounced dead a few hours later.

Drumfrochar Road, outside the school, remains closed to the public with a police cordon being in place.
Parts of Broomhill Street and Cornhaddock Street where they meet Drumfrochar Road are also closed.
