    Snowman rally: Woman killed as car hits spectators

    A 50-year-old woman has died after a rally car left the track and collided with spectators in the Highlands.


    An eight-year-old boy was taken to hospital but police said his condition was not believed to be life-threatening.


    The incident happened on the first stage of the Highland Car Club Snowman Rally in Glen Urquhart Forest, about five miles west of Loch Ness.
    The event was the opening round of the 2013 Scottish Rally Championship.


    Northern Constabulary said the rally had been abandoned.

    Police said the injured boy had been taken to Raigmore Hospital in Inverness.

    Neither the driver nor the co-driver of the rally car were injured in the incident. No other spectators were injured.


    Officers said the details of the dead woman would not be released until all next of kin had been informed.


    Terrible tragic news...

    Terrible news. RIP



    Sadly, some of the reporting has been poor. SkyNews reporting that "there was no barrier between the track and spectators".

    Is there a better sound than that of Porsche engined Flat-6 ???
