Celtic chief executive Peter Lawwell's home has caught fire after a terrifying attack during the night.
Thugs struck in the early hours of this morning while the Parkhead power broker and his family slept.
It is believed a petrol bomb or similar device was aimed at Lawwell's car as it sat in his driveway.
But the car exploded and the blaze quickly spread to his luxury home on the south side of Glasgow.
Police and up to eight fire engines attended the scene and Lawwell and his family were taken to a safe location after the horrific attack.
A Scottish Fire and Rescue Service spokesperson said: “We were alerted at 1.02am on Wednesday, May 19 to reports of a car on fire outside a dwelling in Thorntonhall, Glasgow.
“Operations Control mobilised eight appliances to the scene to extinguish the fire, which was affecting a number of cars as well as the detached two-storey property.
“There are no reported casualties.
“Crews remain in attendance.”
