THE GLASGOW HOODS WERE SHOT DEAD IN COLD BLOOD OUTSIDE MONAGHAN'S PUB IN FUENGIROLA IN THE COSTA DEL SOL AS HORRIFIED EX PATS AND HOLIDAYMAKERS LOOKED ON. 13:06, 01 Jun 2025Updated

14:28, 01 Jun 2025 Two Scots who were gunned down outside an Irish bar in a brutal gangland execution have been named as top members of the Lyons crime clan. Underworld sources say that Ross

Monaghan and Eddie Lyons Jnr are the two victims of the horror shooting. The Glasgow hoods were shot dead in cold blood outside Monaghan's pub in Fuengirola in the Costa Del Sol as

horrified ex pats and holidaymakers looked on. A masked gunman reportedly jumped out a vehicle and fired rounds at the entrance to the bar killing Monaghan and Lyons Jnr. The Record

understands the shootings are linked to Scotland's ongoing gangland war. Ross Monaghan is registered as the owner of Monaghan's pub which looks onto the beachfront in the popular

holiday resort. Article continues below Punters were enjoying a drink after the Champions League final was shown on the big screens in the bar. A masked gunman is reported to have got out of

a car that screeched to a halt outside the bar before fleeing the scene in the same vehicle driven by an accomplice. Authorities in Spain say the first victim was shot in the chest and the

second in the chest and abdomen. The government's sub-delegate in Malaga Javier Salas also confirmed the two victims were Scottish. Harrowing images from the scene show a man lying

lifeless on his back in shorts and a T-shirt by a drinks and meal blackboard on an outside terrace at the Irish bar. In other disturbing images police and paramedics can be seen surrounding

the body of one of the victims, thought to be the same man, after he was covered under a blanket as shocked locals and holidaymakers looked on. There are no reports yet of any arrests,

although police set up roadblocks in the area after the shooting to try to catch those responsible. Earlier we told how the bar was owned by Monaghan who fled to the Costa Del Sol in 2017

after he was the victim of a gun attack outside a Glasgow primary school. Monaghan is listed as the proprietor of the bar in an online business directory. Monaghan was cleared of the murder

of notorious Glasgow hood Kevin 'Gerbil' Carroll, who was shot dead in a brutal gangland assassination in Asda Robroyston carpark in 2010. Monaghan was tried for the killing, but

was acquitted in May 2012. He was also cleared of attempting to defeat the ends of justice by disposing of the two guns used in the shooting and torching the getaway car. In August 2017

Monaghan and Eddie Lyons Jnr were both cleared of being involved in a brutal street attack on three men outside the Campsie bar in Bishopbriggs. The brutal ambush left one of the

victim's ears hanging off. But, the case collapsed after prosecutors withdrew the charges against them following two days of evidence. The shock killings come amidst a violent gang war

that has been raging in Scotland since March. The feud first erupted following a fallout between rival gangsters after a £500k stash of cocaine was reportedly swiped from under the nose of

Dubai-based Mr Big, Ross McGill. The drugs were reportedly taken by caged Edinburgh kingpin Mark Richardson's foot soldiers sparking a series of violent attacks on homes and businesses.

Mr Big, who was later revealed as former Union Bears capo McGill waged war on Richardson and his associates, including the Daniels crime clan in Glasgow. Mr Big's enforcers, a faceless

and frightening group going by the name of Tamo Junto (TMJ), have carried out a series of fire bombings and other vicious attacks on homes, businesses and cars associated with Richardson.

We reported earlier this week that a well-placed source said the Dubai-based Mr Big behind attacks on Daniel targets, Ross McGill, had agreed to end hostilities after being leaned on by

cartel bosses in Dubai. However gangland enforces Tamo Junto (TMJ) quickly quashed any talk of peace as they vowed to continue to carry out the turf war. JOIN THE DAILY RECORD WHATSAPP
