A newly-reopened Burger King drive-through in Moray had to close due to long queues of traffic.

The burger chain recently announced the reopening of dozens of stores for a mixture of drive-thru and food deliveries.

However, police had to go to the branch in Elgin on Wednesday.

Police Scotland said in a statement: "Police attended after large amounts of traffic. The store closed and traffic dispersed."

A spokeswoman for Burger King said the branch had a "delayed opening" as a result of a fault with a payment machine.

She added: "Burger King staff worked to disperse the queue while the card machine was fixed."
