Loch Ness search for mysterious balloon-like object
Emergency services undertook a night-time search of Loch Ness after reports a balloon-like object was seen falling from the sky.
The police, coastguard, lifeboat and an RAF search and rescue helicopter scoured the area but found nothing after members of the public said they saw a blue object fall on the south of the Loch, near Dores.
Police thought it might have been a hang glider or microlight. However, following a three-hour search the emergency services could find "nothing untoward".
"We believe the reports were based on sightings causing genuine concern and we commend the actions of the members of the public that contacted the emergency services."
