A woman has died after falling from Friarton Bridge in Perth.

Four police vehicles and an ambulance were on the scene after the incident at 10.25am on Wednesday.

Officers sealed off an area near Willowgate fishery, under the M90.

Scenes of crime officers (SOCOs) were also been seen nearby.

The Willowgate Café announced it was closed for the rest of the day “due to an unforeseen incident.”

“We apologise for any inconvenience,” its Facebook post added.

Amey, which maintains the M90, confirmed that police closed one lane of the Friarton Bridge on Wednesday morning.

Traffic was back running as normal before noon.

A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “Around 10.25am on Wednesday, 13 March, 2024, police were called to a report of a woman having fallen from the Friarton Bridge on the M90 in Perth.

“Emergency services attended and the woman was pronounced dead at the scene.

“Enquiries are ongoing to establish the full circumstances surrounding the incident and a report will be submitted to the procurator fiscal.”
