A 17-year-old boy has died in a smash with a parked van in Edinburgh.

Two others were also injured in the crash on Regent Road at 9.25pm on Sunday.

The teenager, who was behind the wheel of the Ford Fiesta when it collided with the Citroen Relay van, was pronounced dead at the scene.

A seriously injured 21-year-old man and a 15-year-old boy were taken Edinburgh Royal Infirmary.

The 21-year-old remains in hospital while the teenager has been released.
