Edinburgh police respond to crash involving stolen moped on busy city centre road

Edinburgh police responded to a collision in the capital’s city centre involving a car and a stolen moped.

Officers say that the incident occurred in the early evening hours of Wednesday June 29 and involved a scooter and a car just outside of the Waverley Mall on Princes Street.

A picture taken at the scene appears to show the moped lying on its side in front of a bus stop on the stretch of road opposite the Apple store.

An officer from Police Scotland can be seen inspecting the vehicle and taking down notes on the incident.

The area of the city centre is traditionally busy during rush hour and traffic can be seen tailing back behind the scene of the crash.
