A man who caused the death of a toddler just outside her home by driving dangerously has been jailed for six years.

Harlow Edwards, two, was hit by a Ford Focus that crashed into another vehicle and mounted the kerb in Coupar Angus, Perthshire, on October 13 last year.

She had been walking with her sister, who is now 18, and another child, who were seriously injured in the crash on the A94.

Luke Pirie, 23, appeared at the High Court in Edinburgh earlier charged with causing death by dangerous driving and injuring the two children, who were aged six and 17 at the time.

He was sentenced on Wednesday.

Pirie passed his driving test just a year before and was said to be "worked up" and angry as he left his work at Perth Airport to travel to his partner's house in Montrose, Angus.

He was seen speeding through Coupar Angus and had used his mobile for calls, texts and a FaceTime before the crash.
