A CAR on Westray was completely burnt out after a road accident on the island last weekend. The Renault Clio left the link road near to Rackwick in the early hours of Sunday morning, March 7, and then caught fire.
The 18-year-old male driver, the sole occupant of the vehicle, was uninjured in the accident.
Also in the early hours of Sunday, at about 3am, a Peugeot 106 crashed on the main Kirkwall to Finstown road near Davies Brig. The car left the road, smashed through a dry stone wall and ended up on the beach, half a mile outside of Finstown.
No one was hurt in the incident. A report is to be submitted to the procurator fiscal in Kirkwall.
