Two men have appeared in court charged with murder after an 18-year-old man died following a disturbance in Broxburn, West Lothian.

Adam Nevin died in hospital on Sunday after police were called to a property on McCann Avenue at about 01:15 on Friday.

Connor Jenkinson, 25, from West Lothian and Shane Jenkinson, 28, from Armadale, appeared at Edinburgh Sheriff Court on Monday.

They were both charged with murder and were remanded in custody.

All three men were taken to Edinburgh Royal Infirmary after police were called to reports of a disturbance in the early hours of Friday morning.

There was a large police presence in Uphall following the incident.

Officers were still at the scene on Monday and as part of the investigation they were seen cutting down a large hedge.

A group of police officers gathered around a large green hedge which is being cut down. A white van with yellow and blue police branding is also visible parked in front of a building which has a sign reading 'Broxburn Baptist church' on it.
