TWO men were rushed to hospital after a brutal attack at a garage owned by the notorious nephew of late crime lord Jamie Daniel.
The pair aged 45 and 41 were brutally assaulted this afternoon as Scotland’s gang war erupted in fresh violence.
Insiders say convicted drug dealer Robert Daniel, 50, was the target at his garage in East Kilbride, Lanarkshire, for hoods acting under orders from Dubai-based hood Ross McGill, 31 - linked to the Lyons gang.
Cops are probing the latest escalation in a terrifying turf war that’s been raging for more than two months.
A heavy police presence was seen outside CS Accident Repair Garage hours after two men were subjected to a brutal assault.
Detectives and uniformed cops were seen guarding the property in the town’s Wilson Place - a small industrial unit close to the Whirlies Roundabout.
An ambulance was seen outside the unit as a probe into the incident began.
An insider said: “This is a worrying escalation and there is no doubt the people behind these attacks have been out for blood - and now they've got it.
“This was a calculated and brutal attack.
“Anyone who thinks this ongoing war is about to end any time soon is sadly mistaken.”
The savagery is the latest in a wave of incidents across Edinburgh and Glasgow linked to a mob run by former Union Bears ultra McGill.
The attack comes days after we unmasked the 31-year-old as an aspiring mob boss out for revenge over a £500,000 drug deal rip-off using fake notes.
The garage has Daniel listed as a director. He was previously sentenced in 2005 to eight years for heroin dealing with Judge Lord Nimmo Smith branding the crime "a pernicious social evil".
We told how Daniel cheated death once before in 2017 when he was shot while in his motor outside his home in Stepps, near Glasgow.
Crime clan chiefs hired an ex-squaddie to carry out the hit on the convicted drug dealer in a failed assassination.
Underworld sources claimed the Lyons mob were the prime suspects for ordering the kill bid on Daniel, then aged 45.
We told how Daniel was shot on his shoulder as he reversed his Skoda Octavia out of his driveway amid a string of tit-for-tat attacks between the two mobs.
The hood — nephew of late crime boss Jamie — had just returned from a children’s birthday party with family when he was shot at point-blank range.
And now eight years on his business has been targeted - with the Lyons said to have had a hand in the carnage.
We told how McGill - an ex-Rangers ultra dubbed Miami - is waging a terrifying gangland war on Scotland’s streets after rising to the top table of the nation’s organised crime network.
The former Union Bears chief was pictured at Ibrox in 2021 with then Gers boss Steven Gerrard, 44, and two years earlier with captain James Tavernier, 33.
But he left his role with the ultras group just months before he was due to appear in court in early 2022 in connection with a probe into drug dealing and gangsterism.
He initially fled to Spain before resurfacing in Dubai from where he’s been calling the shots on a vengeful campaign of violence sparked by a dodgy cocaine deal.
His self-styled group Tamu Junto has claimed responsibility for a wave of firebombings across the central belt since April, targeting associates of caged crime kingpin Mark Richardson, 38, and the Glasgow-based Daniel mob.
A source said: “McGill is Scotland’s most wanted gangster.”
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “Around 1.25pm on Monday we received a report of a serious assault on Wilson Place, East Kilbride.
“Emergency services attended, and a 45-year-old man was taken to University Hospital Hairmyres and a 41-year-old man was conveyed to Queen Elizabeth University Hospital for treatment.
“Enquiries are ongoing.”
