Apparently there's helicopters flying above Cockburn St and riot police with dogs everywhere in that local, anyone know what's going on.

If it was a gunman I doubt the police would let lots of spectators hang about...

The naked gunman may be a stray cat.

This would explain the presence of police dogs.

Most recent reports are that it's Johann Lamont. She's demanding that Ed Miliband negotiates his resignation with her.

I was biking up to meet some friends in town and the the helicopter appeared a few minutes after I was caught short down by Holyrood. I got a little paranoid there for a moment.

Apparently the stray cat is kunstler going for a wazz.

Police state that the perp holstered his weapon, and rode off into the night.

Naked gunman isn't delivering a trayful of sausages that he's balanced on his head, is he?

A spokesman said: "Police in Edinburgh were in attendance on the Royal Mile on Saturday evening in connection with an earlier incident of a stolen motorbike and the man was reported to be on the roof of a building...

On a motorcycle?
