Reports of a car in the Forth and Clyde Canal near Lock 16 led Scottish Fire and Rescue Service (SFRS) to rush to the scene this afternoon.

A number of SFRS appliances attended at the incident, near Camelon’s Union Inn, earlier this afternoon and specialist rescue personnel used a dingy to search the body of water.

SFRS have now left the scene, leaving the vehicle submerged.

A Police Scotland spokesperson said: "Officers are carrying out enquiries to establish the full circumstances."
