A man has been sentenced to four years in prison for assault and robbery in Edinburgh.
Conlan Carr, 27, was found guilty at Edinburgh Sheriff Court on Wednesday, 21 May, 2025. He was sentenced at the same court on Tuesday (3 June).
In the early hours of Thursday, 11 May, 2023, Carr entered a property on Craigentinny Road, armed with a knife.
