Five people, including a 13-year-old, have been charged following the Bonfire Night riots in Edinburgh.

Police say they expect to make more arrests in the coming weeks and another fourteen people have been identified in connection with the disturbances in the Niddrie area of the city on November 5.

Officers from Police Scotland were called to the disturbances and came under attack with a number sustaining 'minor physical injuries.'

A 31-year-old man and a 24-year-old woman have been arrested and charged with fireworks offences. They were released on an undertaking to appear in court at a later date.

An 18-year-old man and a 13-year-old boy were arrested and charged with culpable and reckless conduct, and being in possession of a weapon. The 18-year-old will appear in court at a later date and the 13-year-old was reported to the relevant authorities.

A 20-year-old man was also arrested and charged with a fireworks offence on the night of the disorder.

Chief Inspector Kieran Dougal said: “We are continuing our enquiries into the significant disorder we experienced on bonfire night. These arrests are just the start and we expect to make more in the coming weeks.

“A number of our officers sustained minor physical injuries, however we are also aware of the mental impact that dealing with such significant levels of violence can have and will continue to support all officers affected.”
