COPS have launched a manhunt for a fiend who sexually assaulted a schoolboy as he camped with family at a Scots beauty spot.
The sicko approached the eight-year-old lad in his tent at Loch Ness Bay Campsite in Drumnadrochit, Inverness-shire, between midnight and 1am this morning.

The attacker is described as a bald white man, around 5ft 10ins, aged between 40 and 50 years old.
Extensive enquiries into the sickening incident are ongoing.
Specialist officers are supporting the boy and his family.
There will be a significant police presence at the popular campsite while cops carry out investigations.
Detective Inspector Christopher Macleod said: “A dedicated team of officers are carrying out investigations and it is vital we trace the man responsible as soon as possible.
“I would urge anyone with information to come forward.
“If you were within the campsite or the surrounding area yesterday evening and noticed anything or anyone suspicious, please contact us.
“There will be a significant police presence in the area while the investigation is ongoing.
“Please approach officers if you have any concerns or information or call Police Scotland via 101, quoting incident number 0167 of 31 July, 2025.
“You can also call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.”
Elsewhere, a vile sex attacker who filmed himself raping a young girl was jailed for 12 years today.
Matthew James also rigged up hidden cameras to spy on the child during the grooming and abuse.
The sick 47-year-old later claimed the youngster never said ‘no’ as he preyed on her.
A woman also suffered repeated physical and sexual violence at his hands.
