Teen falls to death from car park
Aberdeen
The accident happened at a car park in Aberdeen
A teenager plunged to his death from a multi-storey car park in what police have described as a "tragic accident".

The 19-year-old, who has not been named, was at a popular skateboarding spot in Aberdeen when the accident happened, at 2345 BST on Saturday.

Grampian Police said there were several young people using the upper levels of the College Street car park to skateboard at the time of the incident.

A spokesman asked anyone who was there to contact police.

He said: "The death is not being treated as suspicious.

"While some of the youths have already been spoken to by police it is thought that many more were present and may have some knowledge of exactly what happened.

"It is requested that anyone who was present at the car park shortly before midnight contact the police as they may be able to assist with the inquiry."
