A 52-year-old man suffered serious injuries in the same incident and was taken to hospital for treatment. An investigation is ongoing, led by officers from Police Scotland’s Major Investigation Team.

Officers are also investigating a report of a white Vauxhall Astra car which was found in fire at Gadie Street around 6.10am on Friday, 14 April. The fire is being treated as wilful and enquiries are ongoing.

Officers locked down the area after being alerted to the incident in the early hours of Friday, April 14. (Daily Record)

A Police Scotland spokesperson said: "Officers are keeping an open mind as this progresses and are considering possible links between the two incidents.

"Anyone with information is asked to call Police Scotland via 101, quoting incident number 0384 of 14 April, 2023. Alternatively, please call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111."

An online portal has been set up to encourage members of the public to submit information.
