Tributes have been paid to a "gentle giant", who was named locally after being attacked on a street in Edinburgh.
Liam Maloney, 30, died after he was seriously assaulted on Niddrie Marischal Road in the south-east of the capital at around 8pm on Thursday, May 5.
Emergency services raced to the road, at its junction with Niddrie Marischal Grove, and Liam was rushed to the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh for treatment.
