Police are appealing for information following a fatal collision involving a pedestrian and a van in East Lothian. 

Around 10.40am on Sunday, 22 September, 2024, officers were called to a report of a collision in a car park at Seton Sands Caravan Park, in Port Seton. 

Emergency services attended and the 86-year-old female pedestrian was taken to the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh, where she later died. 

Her family are aware. 

The 45-year-old male driver of the white Vauxhall Combo van was not injured. 

Sergeant Dominic Doyle said: “Our thoughts are with the family and friends of the woman who has died. 

“Enquiries are ongoing and I would like to speak to any residents or holidaymakers who were in the area around this time and may have seen what happened. 

“I am also appealing for anyone with relevant dash-cam or any other footage to get in touch on 101, quoting incident 1226 of Sunday, 22 September, 2024.”
