An arrest warrant has been issued after an Edinburgh man charged with multiple assaults over a four-year period failed to appear at court earlier this month. Stuart Grant, 41, of Nicolson Street, Edinburgh, was due to appear at the city’s Sheriff’s Court on 17 October. Grant is charged with three separate counts of assault.

The court, presided over by Sheriff D O’Carroll, issued an arrest warrant for non-appearance, after Grant failed to attend. The charges relate to three separate assaults alleged to have occurred between 2018 and 2022, Police Scotland said.
