Multiple emergency services were called to an incident at a viaduct in Fife on Monday.
Four fire engines along with police and medical crews were called to the scene near Blairhall.
It came after concerns were raised for a person on Monday.
A man’s body has since been found.
A witness reported seeing between 30 and 40 emergency workers on the viaduct, which is part of the cycle path between Alloa and Dunfermline, around lunchtime.
‘There must have been 30-40 emergency workers’
He said: “I was walking in the area when I first heard the sirens.
“Initially two police cars turned up and then I passed two ambulances and six fire engines.
“There must have been between 30 and 40 emergency workers on the viaduct at one point.
“It must be serious whatever has happened.”
Another witness, who was working nearby, said he saw police arriving at the public footpath off the B9037, south of Blairhall.
He said: “Police arrived at around 9am with initial concerns focused around the car, which we were told was left here either last night or very early this morning.
“Then more police vehicles arrived and the access to the path was closed.
“It was around midday when fire engines started to arrive.
“In all there were six appliances and a specialist off-road vehicle.
“They just kept coming and then ambulances also arrived.
“There has been a lot of coming and going from the various emergency services and I’m told it’s to do with an incident at the bridge further down the footpath, heading towards Oakley.”
