Scots Celtic fan among 10 people killed in Irish petrol station explosion

A Scots Celtic fan is among the 10 people killed in a horrific petrol station explosion in Ireland.

Martin McGill, 49, originally from Glasgow, died following the blast in Creeslough, a village in County Donegal, on Friday afternoon. The Hoops fan had moved to the area many years ago and was known locally as 'Scotch Martin', Buzz.ie reports, and was among the victims whose names were released by Irish police at the weekend.

An image of Martin released through police by his family showed him smiling in a Celtic shirt. Local media reports that Martin had moved to the village to care for his parents, Joseph and Mary, and that his funeral is due to be held on Tuesday October 11.
