Police are appealing for information following a serious assault which occurred in the city centre on Friday, 31 May, 2024.
Around 11.50pm a 36-year-old man was waiting at a bus stop on South Bridge when a man, who was unknown to the victim, walked past and punched him in the face.
The victim then made his way to another bus stop and travelled home. He later attended Edinburgh Royal Infirmary where he received treatment for a broken jaw.
The suspect is described as white, of slim build, and was wearing a white and blue t-shirt and a rucksack.
Detective Sergeant Steven Gray said: “This was a completely unprovoked assault and it is vital that we trace the person responsible.
“There were several members of the public nearby at the time waiting for buses and we would urge anyone who witnessed what happened to get in touch.
“We would also urge anyone with private CCTV or dash-cam footage to check in case they have captured anything which could be of significance to our enquiries.
“Anyone with information is asked to contact Police Scotland on 101, quoting incident number 3199 of Sunday, 2 June, 2024. Alternatively you can call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.”
