Investigation launched into River Don oil spill

An investigation has started into the source of oil pollution on the River Don in Aberdeen.

The substance at the Mains of Dyce burn has left a visible sheen on the water surface.

The Scottish Environment Protection Agency and Scottish Water are working to identify the source of the pollution.

Booms have been placed in the water to prevent the substance from spreading, and to help remove it.

Scottish Water said its investigation of drains from nearby built-up areas, which deal with rainfall, had not identified any source of pollution.
