Edinburgh in Shock After Reports of ‘Severed Head’ in Party District; Forensic Police Seal Off Streets

A major incident has rocked Edinburgh’s lively Cowgate area after unconfirmed reports suggested a ‘severed head’ was found in the street. Police Scotland confirmed they were responding to a serious road traffic incident involving a pedestrian being struck by a vehicle, but further details have yet to be officially released.
The closure of the streets has disrupted nearby venues and businesses, including nightclubs and Halloween-themed events. The dance school Bachata Blues shared a statement on social media, saying: “Following police instructions, all venues are going to be closed tonight due to a major incident. All ways to enter Cowgate are cut off. Unfortunately, we have to cancel tonight’s event as Mash House will remain closed all night. We will be back soon & hope to reschedule our night as soon as possible!”
