An eight-year-old girl has died and a 12-year-old girl has been airlifted to hospital after becoming trapped under logs in an Argyll forest.
The tragedy happened near the village of Benderloch outside Oban on Sunday.
Police and other emergency services were called to the area after receiving a report that a girl was trapped under logs.
A spokesman for Police Scotland said: "An eight-year-old girl has died after she became trapped under logs in Benderloch.
"Around 2.40pm police and emergency services received a report that the young girl had become trapped.
"Despite the best efforts of emergency services, the eight-year-old girl died at the scene.
"A 12-year-old was also airlifted to hospital in Oban for treatment."
Police said the Health & Safety Executive has been informed about the incident and a report would be sent to the procurator fiscal.
The spokesman added: "Inquires are ongoing into this incident, however police are not treating this as suspicious.
"A report will be submitted to the procurator fiscal."
Margaret Adams, convenor of the local community council, told BBC Radio Scotland's Good Morning Scotland programme that logging had been taking place in the area since around February or March, with warning signs in place.
She said: "The signs make it very clear that they don't want people to go up because there will be heavy machinery and logs stacked."
She added: "Even if people don't know the child themselves, they will know the family in a small community, and every child is precious.
"Therefore, it really will have quite an affect on the locals."
