A teenager has been arrested over a car crash that destroyed a caravan in an Edinburgh garden.

No-one was in the stationary caravan when the car hit it in Groathill Road North at about 8.10am on Wednesday.

Police had said the car was "driving erratically" along the road and a 17-year-old man has now been arrested over the incident.

He was due to appear at Edinburgh Sheriff Court.

Officers are still trying to trace two other people over the crash and appealed for any witnesses to contact them on 101.
