A 31-year-old man has been convicted of killing David Graham in Uddingston two years ago.

Liam Kippen was convicted by a jury earlier alongside Hugh McBean (30) and James Cairney (43) who were found guilty of attempting to defeat the ends of justice.

Officers were called around 7.35pm on Sunday, 6 October, 2024, after Mr Graham was attacked while walking in General's Gate.

He was taken to the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital where he was pronounced dead on arrival.

Detective Superintendent Graham McCreadie said: “Our thoughts very much remain with the family and friends of David at this difficult time.

“I hope this conviction provides them with some measure of closure.

“This was a brutal attack and those involved will now face the consequences of their despicable actions.

“We care deeply about violence and how it affects the communities we serve. We remain committed to addressing the harmful effects of violent crime, bringing those responsible to justice and supporting victims.”

The three men will be sentenced at a later date.
