Murder investigation recovers car involved in fatal accident in Falkirk

Amy Rose Wilson died in an accident in Falkirk around 6.10pm on Saturday.

Her death is being treated as a homicide and the black Mercedes has been recovered.

Police previously said there was an “argument” between the occupants of Ms Wilson’s silver Vauxhall Vectra and the Mercedes on Foundry Street.

A 39-year-old man driving a black Volkswagen Tiguan involved in the crash suffered minor injuries.

According to investigations, the Mercedes left the scene of the accident and drove north on New Carron Road, where the accident occurred.

Ms Wilson was pronounced dead at the scene. The passenger, a 22-year-old man, was taken to Edinburgh’s Royal Infirmary and released after treatment.

The 22-year-old man was arrested on a charge and released pending further investigation.
