A PROBE has been launched after a devastating fish wipeout in an iconic loch next to landmark Linlithgow Palace.
Hundreds of fish suddenly washed up dead in Linlithgow Loch, West Lothian, in what's believed to be a toxic pollution incident.
Images taken on Monday and yesterday morning show large numbers of dead fish - chiefly thought to be roach - floating near the surface of the water.
They were first spotted close to three outflow pipes coming from a nearby housing estate, locals told the Record.
Scottish Water has already been out investigating the incident and eco watchdog SEPA is also aware.
