Road policing officers have launched an appeal for information after a 69-year-old man was injured in a collision involving a taxi at Fort Kinnaird Retail Park in Edinburgh.
The incident happened at around 11.30am on Thursday 12 February 2026 within the car park area of the retail complex. The collision involved a pedestrian and a people carrier style taxi, according to Police Scotland.
The injured man was assisted at the scene by the taxi driver and a member of the public before later attending hospital for treatment. Details of the extent of his injuries have not been disclosed.
The matter was reported to police on Wednesday 18 February. Enquiries are ongoing as officers work to establish the full circumstances surrounding the incident.
Officers are seeking witnesses following a collision between a pedestrian and a people carrier style taxi in an Edinburgh car park.
Sergeant Barry Sommerville said: “I’m appealing for the driver of the vehicle to come forward. They did stop at the scene and assisted the pedestrian and will likely be unaware of the subsequent police involvement.
“I’d also ask the member of the public who helped the man to contact us, as they may have information which could assist our investigation.
“Anyone else who saw what happened or has relevant dash-cam footage is urged to call 101 quoting reference 1925 of 18 February.”
