A Glock pistol has been handed into the police after local Edinburgh volunteers plucked it out of the Water of Leith.
The weapon was found on July 21, at around 1:20pm, by members of the Water of Leith Conservation Trust. The group handed the pistol into a nearby police station after they found it lying on the riverbed.
Images of the find were posted to Twitter by the group, showing the weapon under the Water at the Water of Leith near Warriston. The pistol seems to have been in the water for some time, as it is covered in green moss from the water.
