  1. Taped off between East Fountainbridge and Tollcross (I'd erroneously called it Lothian Road on Twitter). White suited forensics are out taking photos. Word from ARobComp on Twitter from one of his colleagues is someone found in the road around 3.30am.

    Usually only get the forensics out if it's fatal, or thought it might be, possible hit and run? Not good. :(

    Wasn't a man found in King's Stables Road last week, also in the early hours of the morning, also with head injuries?

    Worrying.

    EECW article updated;

    Police say the victim and his girlfriend had been walking into Lauriston Place when they were confronted by two men. An altercation then took place which led to the woman being knocked to the ground. The man then followed the two suspects into Earl Grey Street where another confrontation took place leaving hims eriously injured.

    The two suspects are both described as white, in their early 20s, average build, with short dark coloured hair.

    One was wearing a dark coloured hooded top with writing on the right sleeve and an emblem on the left chest area, dark coloured trousers and white shoes. The other was wearing a dark coloured top with a red crew neck top underneath, dark coloured trousers, and white shoes
