A Lanarkshire man was jailed for eight years yesterday for attempting to murder his brother-in-law in a car attack after a row.
Scott Wilson accelerated towards Anthony Brown in the vehicle and mounted a pavement before hitting the victim in the life-threatening attack.
A judge at the High Court in Edinburgh told the 64-year-old that he had used a potentially deadly weapon in the murder bid. Lord Lake said: "The matter appears to have arisen out of a completely exaggerated response to an argument you had with your brother-in-law."
