A Scots thug brandished a taser after being recruited to take part in a "mysterious" attack on a chef by a gang of men.
Frazer Scott leapt from a car along with two others to target victim Ross Duncan in an Edinburgh street. The 35-year-old wielded a taser - which was the size of a mobile phone - after being recruited to take part in the confrontation by a pal.
The city's sheriff court heard Scott didn't know the reason behind the dispute involving Ross and another man. Sheriff Donald Corke said the incident was "fairly mysterious", reports the Record.
