Three people have been charged in connection with drugs and firearms offences in a raid on a house in Edinburgh.
Officers seized "a number of weapons" including a firearm and several mobile phones during a raid on a flat in Crewe Road Gardens in the Pilton area of Edinburgh on Thursday.
Police Scotland said "extensive inquiries" were ongoing and said the incident is part of their investigations into recent crimes in the east and west of the country.
Two men aged 41 and 61 and a 17-year-old girl are scheduled to appear at Edinburgh Sheriff Court on Saturday.
The arrests come in the middle of a number of gang-related incidents in Edinburgh and Glasgow.
Since March, assaults, shootings and fire-raisings in both cities have been treated as potentially linked to a number of alleged gang-related incidents, with videos of some fires posted online.
In one week alone in April, six addresses were targeted in Glasgow and surrounding neighbourhoods.
Officers are investigating whether a deliberate fire at a house in Craiglockhart on Thursday is connected to the dispute between rival gangs.
