A man has died after falling overboard from a fishing boat that ran aground in the Firth of Lorn.
A multi-agency call-out was launched after the HM Coastguard received reports of the incident in the area surrounding the island of Belnahua near the Isle of Luing.
A HM Coastguard spokesperson said: “HM Coastguard received a call just before 4pm yesterday, Wednesday December 13, reporting a man overboard from a fishing vessel at Belnahua.
“Oban Coastguard Rescue Team, Oban RNLI lifeboat and a Coastguard helicopter were all sent.”
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “Around 5.15pm on Wednesday December 13, we were made aware of a boat running aground in the Belnahua area.
“The Coastguard attended and the body of a 58-year-old man was recovered. His next of kin are aware.
“The death is being treated as unexplained but there are not believed to be suspicious circumstances. A report will be sent to the Procurator Fiscal.”
