On 31 December 2024 Police Scotland issued a press release relating to an incident which happened on 14 September last year.
We reproduce it below unedited and in full.
*****
Police Scotland has released an image of a man who may be able to assist with their enquiries into an incident in Edinburgh which occurred in the early hours of the morning on Saturday, 14 September, 2024. The incident occurred on Rodney Street in the New Town area of the city.
Bright and early.
These old-fashioned street lamps were illuminated not by electricity but sunshine earlier today.

Council proposals for new housing on the former Powderhall waste-transfer site at 165 Broughton Rd have temporarily stalled.
Two key applications have been withdrawn.
Following a second round of public consultations in late November, we await with interest a new planning application from Ediston and Orion Capital Managers to develop the site bounded by Dundas Street, Eyre Place, King George V Park and Fettes Row/Royal Crescent.
We expect to see latest proposals for the New Town Quarter later this month.
Local resident, playwright, poet and Edinburgh's first makar Stewart Conn has lived alongside the disruptive demolition here since work began in 2022.
We wish all our readers a very happy New Year.

Are you approaching tonight’s celebrations with a certain weariness?
Have you become jaded over Christmas through an excess of savoury sameness – that familiar tedium of cheese & onion, salt & vinegar, prawn cocktail and BBQ beef?
Then may we recommend to you the delights of the Starlight Asian Supermarket at 368 Leith Walk.
It boasts a quite astonishing variety of Lay’s crisp flavours to which many locals will be unaccustomed, at least in this context and these combinations.
At this time of year, some Lothian Buses staff like to dress festively.
