Police in Edinburgh have been patrolling the union canal recently, amid reports of a man 'pushing people in to the water'.
Officers took to social media last night, April 28, to inform locals in the South West of the city that they are out and about walking along the canal after hearing reports of a '60-year-old' man pushing walkers in to the water.
The post on Twitter was specifically regarding the Meggetland area of the canal and it is understood that the man targeted various individuals.
