Red Bridge, Edinburgh licensed by Anne Burgess under CC BY-SA 3.0 on Geograph.org.ukMan charged after Edinburgh cyclist seriously assaulted
Police in Edinburgh say that a 39-year-old man has been arrested and charged in connection with a serious assault on a cyclist last Friday.
The incident, which happened under the Red Bridge near the Crew Toll roundabout on Ferry Road, left the 54-year-old male victim needing hospital treatment for wounds to his face.
Launching an appeal for information following the assault, Detective Constable Douglas Mogg commented: “This was a brutal and unprovoked attack on a cyclist who was using a marked cycle path and it has left the victim injured and badly shaken.”
The man who has been charged will appear in court at a later date, say Police Scotland.

How can that possibly work, in todays world where many (in the EU at least) use EMIs that are often registered in Lithuania?
Yet it will only be the anti-semitism comments that might lead to criminal investigation against him.
