A woman has been charged after a 43-year-old RAF serviceman died when his motorbike and a car crashed in Aberdeenshire.

Corporal David Thorne, based at RAF Lossiemouth, was fatally injured while riding on the A96 at Huntly on 5 March last year.

Originally from Cwmbran in Wales, the aircraft technician had served at the Moray base for more than 16 years.

Police Scotland said a 32-year-old woman had now been charged in connection with the crash. A report will be submitted to the procurator fiscal.
