Emergency services respond to an incident in Edinburgh where a 19-year-old woman is struck by a tram. According to the reports, police lock down a large section of Leith Walk following the crash on Sunday morning. The Mirror and The Scotsman both say the road is closed as officers deal with the scene and manage traffic. The woman suffers serious injuries and is treated by emergency responders. Police also appeal for public assistance, although the reports do not specify what information is being requested. The incident prompts a localised shutdown of part of the route, with the affected area remaining under police control during the response. Both outlets describe the same core facts: the age of the victim, the location on Leith Walk in Edinburgh, that a tram is involved, that the woman is seriously injured, and that authorities close the road and restrict access to the area. The details of the circumstances leading to the incident are not provided in the available summaries.
