RNC have closed a portion of Craigmillar Avenue as they conduct an investigation into reports of shots fired at a house on the west end street early this morning.
Police were called around 6:00 this morning.
RNC says there is no indication of any injuries as a result—they also say that this was not a random attack.
Investigators are concentrating their efforts on a house that was at the centre of a previous murder investigation over the summer.
The Rovers Ground Search and Rescue arrived over the lunch hour with what appeared to be a metal detector.
