Among the crowd of 17,500 people who descended on Bught Park in Inverness for the European Pipe Band Championships was one special guest – the US Attorney General, William Barr.

Mr Barr, who was surrounded by FBI agents, is a keen piper, the Press and Journal reports.

He said he had “thoroughly enjoyed” the event, which will be held every summer in Inverness until 2021.

Les Kidger, event director for Piping Inverness, said: “It was a great day for Inverness and a great day for piping.”
