An investigation has been launched into the attempted murder of two men who had travelled to Edinburgh to buy a car.

One line of inquiry is that the men, both in their 40s, were the victims of a scam after travelling from Aberdeen.

When they arrived at Wardieburn Street West at 18:00 on Wednesday they were set upon in a close by two young men.

Both Aberdeen men were stabbed, though police will not confirm at this stage that they were robbed.

The men, aged 43 and 45, were attacked in a stairwell by two men who are then thought to have left by the back of the block.

Both victims suffered serious injuries and the 43-year-old man is in a critical condition.

Police investigating an attempted murder in which two brothers were stabbed in Edinburgh have said they are following various lines of inquiry.

Peter Stewart, 43, and his brother James, 45, told police they had travelled from Aberdeen to buy a car.

Both men suffered serious injuries, with Peter's originally said to be in a critical condition, although this has since improved and he is noe said to be stable.

His older brother was discharged from hospital on Thursday.

Officers, who are treating the incident as an attempted murder, want to speak to any witnesses who may have seen the attackers.

Found him, huh. I was expecting him to be younger though since the first one was only 16. It will be interesting to find out what the connection is between the 30 year old and 16 year old.
