A driver has died after a crash involving a BMW near a roundabout.

The smash happened on the A77 near Bankfield roundabout in Ayr shortly before 3am on Thursday.

A 35-year-old man, who was driving a BMW Z4 heading northbound, was pronounced dead at the scene.

Officers closed the road for several hours while investigations were carried out.

A Police Scotland spokesman said: "We would also ask anyone driving on this stretch of road around the time of the crash who has dash-cam footage to get in contact on 101."

A report will be sent to the procurator fiscal.
