It’s not for that, it’s for someone who passed away recently.

A 33 year old, that's really tragic.

Does anyone know who it was?

There's now an article in the Evening News (https://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/news/people/police-called-after-hundreds-mourners-attend-edinburgh-funeral-procession-2859904) about the funeral. (though they did put a bit of a strange slant on it)

Typical evening news, very selective reporting contrasted with a few weeks ago when a local rugby player who’s funeral attracted a large local show of support in Clermiston from the community, the news also reported on this but in a respectful manner

Yep, the headline suggest police were called to the scene but that's not what happened at all.

They couldn't possibly have had a headline like "Hibs Fans bid fond farewell to fellow Fan".
