Lothian and Borders Police are appealing for witnesses after a pedestrian was involved in a collision with a car in Edinburgh’s Milton Road on Sunday night.

The incident involving a silver Renault Laguna happened as the 56-year-old man was crossing the road near the junction with Magdalene Drive about 7.40pm.

The man has been taken to Edinburgh Royal Infirmary where he remains in a serious condition.

Sergeant Roger Park said:- “We are working to establish the full circumstances surrounding the incident and are keen to talk to anyone who may have been in Milton Road last night, and who may have seen what happened, to contact us.

“We know the area was quite busy around that time, so would also ask anyone who was there to call us on 0131 311 3131.”

Anyone with any information should contact Lothian and Borders Police on 0131 311 3131, or the charity Crimestoppers in complete anonymity on 0800 555 111.
