A one-year-old baby girl has died after being hit by a Land Rover in a church car park after a bible reading in Scotland.
Emergency services rushed to the Plymouth Brethren meeting hall in the village of Balmedie, Aberdeenshire, at 7.45pm on Wednesday.
The child was taken to Aberdeen Royal Infirmary but died shortly after. The 40-year-old man driving the car was uninjured, police have said.
Plymouth Brethren church told BBC Scotland that the accident happened after a bible reading at the hall and that the baby killed was part of its 'vibrant local community'.
It remains unclear whether the baby was in a pram or not when she was hit by the Land Rover.
