Police rushed to an Edinburgh primary school on Wednesday after receiving reports of a man in possession of a dangerous weapon in the area.
The alarm was raised near Sighthill Primary School, on Calder Grove, around 2.40pm on November 16 with locals reporting multiple police cars within the gates of the school, as well as parked on the road outside.
Officers say they received a report of a man causing a disturbance with an "offensive weapon" who later fled the scene as they carried out a search of the area to locate him, although it is understood that the incident did not occur in the school building.
