Police in Scotland have said two males have died after a light aircraft crashed near the Perthshire village of Abernyte, the BBC reported Sunday.

Rescue teams found the plane's wreckage close to the village, about 10 miles (16km) west of Dundee Airport.

The aircraft, believed to be flying from Inverness, was due to arrive at the airport at about 12:00 BST.
Air traffic controllers lost contact with the plane about four miles (6.4km) west of the airport.

An investigation has been launched and a report will be sent to the procurator fiscal.
