The centre of Edinburgh has been transformed into a 'mini war zone' as riot police and a helicopter hunt for a man thought to be on a roof in the city's Old Town.
More than 50 officers wearing balaclavas and shields were deployed to Cockburn Street - near to where a shooting was earlier reported.
Crowds gathered as police, accompanied by sniffer dogs, searched The Scotsman building floor by floor with the chopper circling overhead.
A Police Scotland spokeswoman said: 'Police and the fire service are in attendance to trace a man reported to be on a roof in Edinburgh city centre.
The police helicopter has been deployed and a cordon is in places to ensure public safety.'
