A 24-year-old man has been named by police after being killed in a late-night collision in Grangemouth, Falkirk.

Sean McGinley, 24, died after being struck by a Ford Fiesta on Newlands Road at around 11.15pm on Monday, 17 August.

Emergency services attended the scene, but Mr McGinley was pronounced dead.

The 35-year-old driver of the Fiesta was taken to hospital as a precaution and was later arrested in connection with the incident.

Newlands Road was closed for almost seven hours while specialist collision investigators carried out enquiries.

Police Scotland has now released a photograph of Mr McGinley as officers continue their investigation into the circumstances of the crash.

Police seek two key witnesses

Officers are particularly keen to trace a man and woman travelling in a dark-coloured vehicle who are believed to have stopped behind the Fiesta immediately after the collision.

Police believe one of them spoke with the driver before emergency services arrived.

Sergeant Michael Shillington said:

“We know there were a number of witnesses who assisted at the scene prior to emergency services attending.

“Specifically, we’re keen to hear from two people who we believe stopped behind the Fiesta following the crash and spoke with the driver.

“They are potential witnesses, and we are eager to hear from them.

“Equally, anyone who has relevant dashcam or video footage is asked to provide this at their earliest opportunity.”

Anyone with information, or relevant dashcam or video footage, is asked to contact Police Scotland on 101, quoting reference 3764 of 17 August 2026.
