A body pulled from the sea near Orkney belongs to a fisherman who fell overboard four months ago.

Craig Reid, 25, was lost from the Apollo about 20 miles west of the islands on April 18.

Remains found nearby on July 31 have now been confirmed as those of the Inverness fisherman.

A Police Scotland spokesman said: "We can confirm the identity of the body recovered on July 31 by a fishing vessel as Craig Reid.

"Mr Reid entered the sea from a fishing vessel he was working from on April 18. Our thoughts are with Mr Reid's family at this difficult time."
