A man has been arrested following the attempted murder of two brothers from Aberdeen. The men, named locally as Peter and James Stewart, required hospital treatment after the incident in a stairwell in Edinburgh's Wardieburn Place West on April 8. It happened after the pair had travelled more than 100 miles from Aberdeen to buy a car. Police said a 30-year-old man has been arrested and charged in connection with the incident. He is expected to appear at Edinburgh Sheriff Court on Monday. Earlier this month, a 16-year-old man was arrested in connection with the incident.
