Two people have been arrested after a man died following a shooting outside a pub on Hogmanay.

Marc Webley, 38, was shot just before midnight on West Granton Road, Edinburgh, and died in hospital.

Emergency services were called at about 11.50pm on December 31 after a firearm was discharged outside the Anchor Inn.

A 39-year-old man was also seriously injured and was taken to hospital.

Police said on Friday that a 32-year-old man and 25-year-old woman have been arrested in connection with the incident and inquiries are ongoing.

Detective Superintendent Graham Grant, of the major investigation team, said: “We’d like to thank the local community for their support and patience while enquiries are ongoing.

“There will continue to be an increased police presence in the area and anyone with further concerns should speak to officers, call 101, or, in the case of an emergency, 999.”
