Police are appealing for witnesses following a large-scale disturbance outside a Tollcross pub.

Officers were called to the International Bar in Brougham Place at around 7.30pm on Sunday 27th April after a brawl in the street that left two men injured, one seriously.

Two men have been arrested. They appeared at Edinburgh Sheriff Court today (Monday) and were released on bail.

Chief Inspector Richard Horan said: “This was a large-scale incident outside a city centre pub and Police Scotland would like to hear from anyone who witnessed the fight or may have information regarding the identity of some of the other men involved.”

Anyone with information can contact Police Scotland on 101 or, alternatively, the charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
