A motorcyclist who died after being involved in a crash with a car was a "much-respected firefighter".
Andrew Dunleavey was on his Honda motorcycle when it was in a collision with a Lotus car at the entrance to Craigielaw Golf Club on the A198 in East Lothian.
Emergency services attended but he was pronounced dead at the scene.
Colleagues at the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service have paid tribute to the 32-year-old.
Kenny Rogers, local senior officer for Edinburgh, said: "We are deeply saddened by the tragic death of our colleague Andrew Dunleavey.
"Andrew served at Newcraighall community fire station in Edinburgh and was a popular and much respected firefighter who was dedicated to serving his community.
"He was a dear member of the fire and rescue service family, and will be very much missed. Our thoughts are with all of Andrew's family and friends at this very sad time."
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
