Woman who died in 'shocking incident' in Scottish city named as man charged

A WOMAN who died in Edinburgh has been named as Ndata Bobb, after a 55-year-old man has been charged in connection with her death.

Bobb, 43, was taken to Edinburgh Royal Infirmary after police were called to a disturbance in the city’s Restalrig Avenue at around 1am on Thursday, police have said.

She died a short time later.

The 55-year-old man was taken to St John’s Hospital in Livingston for treatment before being arrested and charged.

He will appear at Edinburgh Sheriff Court on Monday.

Detective Inspector Kevin Tait said: “Our thoughts remain with the family and friends of Ndata at this extremely difficult time.

“Our investigation remains ongoing, however, we are not looking for anyone else in connection with Ndata’s death.

“This is a shocking incident and I would urge anyone with any concerns, or information, to contact police.”
