A MASKED MAN IS SAID TO HAVE ENTERED MONAGHANS FUENGIROLA AND KILLED HIS VICTIMS IN FRONT OF HORRIFIED TOURISTS. 09:39, 01 Jun 2025Updated 13:45, 01 Jun 2025 Two men, understood to have been


Scottish, were shot dead at a popular Irish bar in a Costa del Sol holiday resort. A masked man is said to have entered Monaghans Fuengirola and killed his victims in front of horrified


tourists and expats enjoying a drink after the end of the Champions League final before fleeing in a getaway vehicle. Some reports speak of two gunmen, although this has yet to be confirmed


by police. A spokesman for the National Police in Malaga, in the force’s first official comment on the incident, said this morning: “Around midnight an incident with firearms occurred in


Fuengirola, specifically at an entertainment venue along the seafront. “Two males died as a result from gunshot wounds. The investigation is ongoing and no arrests have been made so far.”


Spain's National Police subsequently confirmed both were Scottish. Earlier the government’s sub-delegate in Malaga Javier Salas also said they were both Scottish. Article continues


below He said the first victim was shot in the chest and the second in the chest and abdomen. They are understood to have been shot near the entrance door to Monaghans Fuengirola by a masked


gunman who got out of a car that screeched to a halt outside the bar before fleeing in the same vehicle driven by an accomplice. The Record understands the shootings are related to ongoing


gang wars in Scotland. Grisly pictures from the scene of last night’s shooting, which occurred around 11.30pm, show a man lying lifeless on his back in shorts and a T-shirt by a drinks and


meal blackboard on an outside terrace at the Irish bar. In other disturbing images police and paramedics can be seen surrounding the body of one of the victims, thought to be the same man,


after he was covered under a blanket as shocked locals and holidaymakers looked on. There are no reports yet of any arrests, although police set up roadblocks in the area after the shooting


to try to catch those responsible. The killings come amidst a violent gang war that has been raging in Scotland since March. JOIN THE DAILY RECORD WHATSAPP COMMUNITY! Get the latest news

reportedly swiped from under the nose of Dubai-based Mr Big, Ross McGill. The drugs were reportedly taken by caged Edinburgh kingpin Mark Richardson's foot soldiers sparking a series of


violent attacks on homes and businesses. Mr Big, who was later revealed as former Union Bears capo McGill waged war on Richardson and his associates, including the Daniels crime clan in


Glasgow. Mr Big's enforcers, a faceless and frightening group going by the name of Tamo Junto (TMJ), have carried out a series of fire bombings and other vicious attacks on homes,


businesses and cars associated with Richardson. We reported earlier this week that a well-placed source said the Dubai-based Mr Big behind attacks on Daniel targets, Ross McGill, had agreed


to end hostilities after being leaned on by cartel bosses in Dubai. However gangland enforces Tamo Junto (TMJ) quickly quashed any talk of peace as they vowed to continue to carry out the


turf war. The video released by the TMJ crime gang on Friday morning states that anyone linked to the Daniel Clan or Mark Richardson remains a target for their group. The Record reported


previously that the Lyons crime gang have pulled out of the feud over concerns about the police crack down. Article continues below The clan were said to have been feeding McGill information


about their rivals, the Daniel family, but boss Steven Lyons, 44, made the call to concentrate on his own interests. A source said he issued the order over fears his enforcers could be


arrested and jailed and his family would lose their grip on power in the north of Glasgow.
