Two people have died after a diving trip to a Scottish loch.

Police Scotland said emergency crews were alerted to a report of concern for two divers at Loch Fyne in Argyll and Bute at about 3.30pm on Sunday.

The force said a 25-year-old was pronounced dead at the scene, while the body of a 24-year-old was recovered from the water.

A Police Scotland spokesperson said: "The deaths are being treated as unexplained and a post-mortem examination will take place in due course."

The coastguard, lifeboat crews, and the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service (SFRS) were also involved in the multi-agency operation.
