Two cars had their windscreens smashed and a third was damaged after rocks were thrown from a flyover on the Edinburgh city bypass.

The incidents happened as the southbound vehicles passed under the Lanark Road flyover, near the turn-off for Baberton Road, at around 11.40pm on Tuesday.

The windscreens of an Audi A4 and Vauxhall Insignia were smashed while a third car had bodywork damage when a rock hit its bonnet.

No one was injured and officers are keen to trace two men who were seen acting suspiciously under the flyover shortly beforehand.

Sergeant Neil Thomson said: "These crimes demonstrate a complete disregard for the safety of others.

"Such recklessness is extremely dangerous and could have resulted in multiple serious injuries or worse."

Anyone with information should call 101.
