hughesie27 Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 (edited) Few rumours doing the rounds just now. A body seemingly dumped out of a car on Calder Road a couple of hours ago as well as potentially multiple bodies been found in a van in Museelburgh.

hughesie27 Posted November 14, 2023 Author Share Posted November 14, 2023 Horrible situation, some suggesting now that someone was ran over nearer Gorgie/Chesser and the driver hadn't noticed. There's not going to be any positive outcome from this but hopefully it's nothing as nasty as that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sooperstar Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 Latest theory is that someone was run over around the end of Gorgie Road at Chesser by a large tanker and the body then dragged along before coming loose on Calder Road near The Silver Wing.

That's a fair distance up past the prison, around a roundabout and on another 500 yards or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Day@theraces Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 (edited) Can't imagine the state of the body if it was indeed dragged along for a fair bit. The underpasses are there for a reason yet people still jump the fence and all it takes is a slight tumble. The underpasses are well lit now and some have CCTV.

There was seemingly a person found dead in a Van on the road going alongside the Tesco. No confirmation on of it was just someone at the wheel or someone in the back of the van though. Certainly police/ambulance in the area of the van. Edited November 14, 2023 by hughesie27 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this theory has the incident starting at Chesser, well short of the first underpass. It seems more likely what you suggest. A dual carriageway shortcutter.

I had to slam the brakes on once around there when a kid ducked through a hole in a fence and ran across the carriageway, which made me cover my brake, then sure enough a smaller kid appeared through the same hole and ran straight in front of me without looking. Scared the wife big time as she's not been driving so long so didn't consider the risk of another kid appearing... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
