Scottish authorities said on Saturday they charged a man in connection with attacks in Edinburgh that wounded five people with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer saying the suspect “appears to be motivated by anti-Muslim hatred”. Police Scotland said officers had arrested a 36-year-old white Scottish man and there was “no further threat to the public”. “A 36-year-old man has been charged in connection with a number of incidents which took place in Edinburgh on Friday, June 19, 2026,” police said late on Saturday.
