Initial tests indicate that the liquid was some form of domestic cleaning product and the victim has been taken to hospital for assessment. Newington was cordoned off by police after the incident.
In a video of the incident, seen by the ECHO, the victim, wearing a brown tracksuit, is being recorded by a man, who is a friend of the victim. Then, a woman out of shot can be heard shouting at the victim.
