An Edinburgh street was locked down by police after a man collapsed and died on Wednesday morning.
Officers rushed to the scene, on Corbiehill Road in the Davidson's Mains area, shortly before midday after the 81-year-old fell ill.
A road closure was put in place as other emergency services arrived on the scene.
Police say the pensioner was pronounced dead a short time later, and there are no suspicious circumstances. A report will be submitted to the procurator fiscal.
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “Officers in Edinburgh received a report of a concern for person on Corbiehill Road around 11.45am on Wednesday, 2 June.

Corbiehill Road was closed at the junction with Main Street for much of Wednesday afternoon, with bus diversions in place. It has since reopened to traffic.
