Body found in walker hunt

A body has been found in the River Spey by rescuers searching for a 75-year-old walker.

William Ross, from the Aberdeen area, set out to walk the 13-mile Fochabers to Craigellachie section of the Speyside Way, with others on Sunday, and was last seen at 10.30am that day.

It is understood the party lost the trail and while the others cut across a field to get back on to it, Mr Robb opted to turn back.
