Cops release CCTV images of man wanted after late night attack in Edinburgh

CCTV images have been released of a man who cops are hunting following a serious assault which took place in Edinburgh three months ago.

The attack occurred around 11pm on Monday, July 18 on Brighton Place in the Portobello area of the capital. Police Scotland have launched a probe into the incident, and believe the man pictured may hold information which could assist their ongoing enquiries.

The male is described as white, around 40 years old, around 6ft2” tall with a bald head and thin build. He is understood to have been wearing a light coloured t-shirt with a design on the front and shorts on the night in question.

Officers want the man, or anyone who has any link or details about him, to come forward.

Detective Constable Mark Walker of Gayfield CID said: “I would urge the male, or anyone who has information relating to the male, depicted in these images to make contact with the Police.

"Members of the public can contact Police Scotland via the 101 non-emergency telephone number quoting incident number 3631 of 22 July 2022.

"Alternatively, you can call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111, if you wish to remain anonymous.”
