Second man arrested in connection with death of granddad in Airdrie

A second man has been arrested in connection with the death of a grandfather who was found seriously injured in the road.

Police were called to reports of a disturbance at a house on Frew Street in Airdrie early on August 19.

Colin MacDonald, 59, was found in a critical condition a short time later at Rankin Crescent in nearby Greengairs.

He was taken to Monklands Hospital and died the following day.

A man aged 20 has been arrested and charged in connection with the death. He will appear at Airdrie Sheriff Court on Monday.

In October a 29-year-old man was also arrested and charged, but police say inquiries are still being carried out.
