A man was rushed to hospital with serious injuries following an early morning single-car accident in east Perthshire.

Accident investigat­ors attended the scene and the A984 Meikleour to Dunkeld road was closed in both directions for a while.

Police diverted traffic away from the stretch between the Carsie road junction and the B947 Spittalfie­ld road.
