A BURNT out car found on a cycle track in Yoker at the weekend may be linked to an attempted murder in Maryhill, say police.

A black Ford Kuga vehicle was found at the path near Kelso Street and Dumbarton Road around 4.25pm on Saturday, September 11.

Ten minutes earlier, a man had been found seriously injured on Dalsholm Road, Glasgow.

Emergency services attended the scene and a 41-year-old man was taken to hospital for treatment.

Extensive enquiries have been ongoing, with detectives working alongside local uniformed officers, who are interested in speaking to anyone who has information surrounding a burnt out car that may be linked to the incident.

Detective Inspector Craig Warren, of Police Scotland’s CID unit, said: “A black Ford Kuga vehicle was found burnt out on a cycle path near Kelso Street and Dumbarton Road and we believe this may be linked to the incident.

“I would ask if you were in the area at the time and noticed this vehicle, or anyone acting suspiciously near Dalsholm Road or Dumbarton Road, that you come forward and speak to police.

“If there are any motorists with dashcam footage that could assist with our enquiries, please get in touch with officers.”
