By Shaun Milne

POLICE have arrested a man over an assault on a Paramedic who was trying to help him after a crash.

The 52-year-old had been involved in a collision in South Queensferry and turned on the medic who was tending his injuries.

Officers found he was over the legal drink drive limit and charged him.

No further details have been released.

But the incident came on the first day of a national police summer anti drink/drug drive campaign.
