A man has been arrested and charged after a "suspicious package" was discovered at an Edinburgh flat.

Residents in the Niddrie House Square area of the city were evacuated as a precaution after the item was found on Monday night.

An Army Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) team was called out, but the package was found to be "not viable."

Officers have charged a 40-year-old man in connection with the incident.

He is due to appear at Edinburgh Sheriff Court on Tuesday.
