POLICE are investigating the death of a person whose body was found in a vehicle in a rural car park.
Officers were called to the car park just off the A91 in the village of Blairlogie, near Stirling, yesterday afternoon.
They later confirmed that a body had been discovered inside a vehicle.
The response has been described as an "ongoing multi-agency operation" and police are working to establish the cause of death. No further details have been released about the dead person.
Officers remained at the scene last night and drivers were being advised to avoid the area.
A police spokesman said: "Police in Forth Valley can confirm that they are involved in an ongoing multi-agency operation in Blairlogie in relation to a body which was found within a vehicle.
"Police and other emergency responders are working to establish the cause of death, and due to the continued activity of the emergency services motorists are advised to avoid the area if possible."
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
