Garage murderers jailed for life | |
(about 2 hours later) | |
Two men have been jailed for life for murdering one man and attempting to kill two others in a shooting at a Glasgow garage. | |
At the High Court in Glasgow, Raymond Anderson, 46, and 34-year-old James McDonald were told they must serve 35 years before being eligible for parole. Both had denied murdering Michael Lyons, 21, on 6 December 2006. | |
They were also found guilty of attempting to murder Steven Lyons, 27, and 42-year-old Robert Picket. | |
Decent law-abiding citizens are entitled to expect the court to remove you from society Lord Hardie | |
Lord Hardie said the killing of Mr Lyon at Applerow Motors had been a "cold-blooded, premeditated assassination". | |
"Such activity cannot and will not be tolerated in our civilised society," he said. | |
"Decent law-abiding citizens are entitled to expect the court to remove you from society. | |
"That will not occur unless the public co-operates with the authorities in removing guns and gangsters from our streets. | |
"Failure to do so may result in death or injury to innocent people and those who stand by silently must bear some responsibility for such results." |
