A child was taken to hospital after being hit by a taxi in Edinburgh.

Police said the driver of the black, “people carrier-style” vehicle did stop after hitting the four-year-old on South Gyle Broadway, close to Burne Cruik, but then left the scene in the direction of the South Gyle Access Road without giving his details.

The boy was taken to the Royal Hospital for Children for treatment on minor injuries following the incident at about 15:15 on Tuesday.

Road traffic police have asked for the driver, those who witnessed the incident or those who may have captured it on a dash-cam to come forward.
