A number of France rugby players have been questioned by police at Edinburgh Airport after a report of a sexual assault during a night out in the capital at the weekend.

In a Tweet, the French Rugby Union confirmed some players have been spoken to by the Scottish authorities.

Police in Scotland said inquiries had established no crime had been committed and no arrests were made.

A report of sexual assault was made in the early hours of yesterday.

The French rugby team's plane was delayed during the questioning.

It follows their defeat to Scotland in the Six Nations yesterday.
