Emergency services were called to the Edinburgh office of video game developer Rockstar North after reports of an explosion in the building.

The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service went to the property on Holyrood Road at about 05:00 on Monday.

A spokesperson said firefighters had been called out to deal with structural damage at the building following the incident.

Six fire engines went to the scene, but crews were stood down at 09:21. There were no reports of casualties.

A spokesman for Rockstar North said there had been a "malfunction" in one of the heating boilers early Monday morning.

"Many thanks to those that reached out with concern, and also to the police and fire crews who were on scene quickly to assess the situation," he said.

"Everyone is well and our studio remains open and operational."
