The family of 47-year-old John MacKinnon have released a statement through Police Scotland following his death in Skye yesterday.
They said: “John was a loving husband, father of six, brother, uncle and grandfather to his family, and was a much-loved member of the community.
“John loved the outdoors, was a keen motorcyclist and, as a loved father, shared his activities with his family.”
The family requests that their privacy is respected at this very difficult time.
A 39-year-old-man has now been charged in connection with Mr MacKinnon’s murder and the attempted murder of three others who were injured.
