Police have arrested a 28-year-old man who was said to have been "acting suspiciously" in the vicinity of the First Minister's official residence in Edinburgh.
Cops were called to Charlotte Street at around 7.40pm on Saturday after receiving reports of an allegedly suspicious individual. The square is home to Bute House, now Humza Yousaf's official home as leader of the Scottish Government.
Eyewitnesses said that officers were seen to enter the residence upon arrival. Shortly thereafter, they erected a cordon along part of the square, containing the scene.
Police have since confirmed that a man has been arrested.
However, they have stressed that there was "no threat" to the public as a whole.
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “We were called around 7.40pm on Saturday, April 1, to a report of a man acting suspiciously in the Charlotte Square area of Edinburgh.
“Officers attended and a 28-year-old man was arrested in connection with the incident.
“There was no threat to the wider public and enquiries are ongoing to establish the full circumstances.”
The Scottish Government was contacted for comment.

Hunter Ingram SPOILER ALERT: This story contains spoilers from “Love,” the finale of the limited series “Tiny Beautiful Things,” now streaming on Hulu. Hulu’s “Tiny Beautiful Things” ends on a serene note, with a hospital bed in the middle of a horse pasture and a single spoken word: “love.” The moment is one of the few shared between Kathryn Hahn and Merritt Wever in the limited series, which is based on author Cheryl Strayed’s life and her time writing an advice column called “Dear Sugar.” Wever plays Frankie, the free-spirited mother of Hahn’s character Clare, who (like Strayed’s mother) dies suddenly of lung cancer at the age of 45. The story primarily takes place in the present day as a grown-up Clare (played by Hahn) grapples with the trauma of having lost her mother, while Wever’s character exists in flashbacks to the 1990s when Clare was in her 20s and played by Sarah Pidgeon.
