Search teams find missing walker

Search teams have found a 58-year-old walker who went missing during a trek in Wester Ross.

The man was one of a party of three walkers who had set out to tackle An Teallach, a Munro, on Wednesday afternoon.

One of the group managed to make his way off the mountain unaided and a second was found by Dundonnell Mountain Rescue Team at about 2100 GMT.

The team resumed its search for the third walker early on Thursday.

He was found uninjured in a bothy by dogs and their handlers.
