A teenager who murdered a man with a hunting knife while on bail for a slashing has been given a life sentence with a minimum term of 17 years.
The 17-year-old chased and killed John McNab, 22, in an unprovoked attack on Great Junction Street in Leith on 2 September last year.
The fatal stabbing came four months after the youth was released on bail having been charged with a knife attack on a 16-year-old boy at Portobello Beach.
The teenager, who cannot be named because of his age, previously pleaded guilty to both attacks.
