Police in Fife are investigating the discovery of a man’s body at a popular beauty spot.
Officers were called to the East Lomond car park at Falkland Hill on Wednesday afternoon after a member of the public made the grim find.
The dead man has been identified as a 55-year-old, although his identity is not expected to be released until next of kin are fully informed.
Police vehicles were spotted blocking the entrance to the car park well into the evening, while an area of the car park had also been taped off.
Witnesses said a private ambulance arrived on the scene to take the man’s body away for a post-mortem examination.
A Police Scotland spokesperson confirmed the death was not being treated as suspicious, but investigations are ongoing.
“Police in Fife were called to the East Lomond View area of Falkland around 2.35pm on Wednesday, May 22, after the body of a 55-year-old man was discovered,” the spokesperson added.
“The death is being treated as unexplained, but not suspicious, and a report will be submitted to the procurator fiscal.”
