A man, woman and child who died after getting into difficulty in Loch Lomond have been named by police.

Police Scotland said they received a report of concerns for people in the water near Pulpit Rock, Loch Lomond, south of Ardlui, on Saturday evening.

A seven-year-old boy, the son of Raza, was taken by ambulance to the Royal Hospital for Children in Glasgow, where he is in intensive care.

A Police Scotland statement said it received the call at about 6.40pm on Saturday. It added: “A multi-agency operation took place and sadly three people were pronounced dead at the scene. Formal identification has still to take place, but the family of a 41-year-old man, 29-year-old woman and nine-year-old boy have been made aware.”

A report into the incident will be sent to the procurator fiscal.

It brings the number of people who have died in Scotland after getting into difficulty in the water to five in 24 hours.

An 11-year-old boy was pronounced dead at the scene after being found in the river at Alexander Hamilton memorial park in Stonehouse, South Lanarkshire, on Saturday afternoon. A 16-year-old boy died in the water at Balloch country park, at the southern point of Loch Lomond, on Friday.
