Police in Edinburgh have decided no further action will be taken regarding an attack on a cycle path.

A 22-year-old woman was walking on the Craigleith to Davidson's Mains route in Edinburgh on Tuesday afternoon when she was set upon.

A passing cyclist hit her in the face and knocked her to the ground before grabbing her purse and other personal items, before fleeing the scene on his bike towards Ferry Road.

However, as a result of their inquiries it has now been established that no further police action is required.

The public are thanked for their assistance with this appeal.
