An Edinburgh delivery driver on a bike and a motorist blocked traffic on a side road in Leith yesterday after a rammy broke out between the pair in the middle of the road.

The incident took place on Dalmeny Street on Thursday, July 8 and involved a food courier cyclist and a catering repairs van driver getting into a fight.

In the video, captured by Tawney Rutherford, the cyclist appears to take the driver's keys from his vehicle before throwing them up the street.

The driver gets out of the van, takes his sunglasses off in a dramatic manner and takes the bike from the cyclist as he storms up the road to get his keys.

Furiously the pair begin to fight over the bike in a tug-of-war manner before the video clip ends and the driver looks like he returned to his vehicle.

The full nature of the altercation is unknown but the incident took place just off Leith Walk and stopped traffic from passing for some time.

The fight was caught on camera and shared to social media site TikTok and has now been viewed over 100,000 times.

One social media user said: "That person honking is so rude. Can't you see they are mid scrap."

Another said: "Grown men behaving worse than little kids."

One said: "Most Leith thing I have ever seen."

While another added: "He took off those glasses like he was going to fight him."

Police Scotland saiid: "At the time the matter was reported to police by a third party.

"When police attended the area there as no trace of the parties involved. The matter was subsequently reported to police following the incident."
