Police Scotland are hunting for three armed men after a car was deliberately rammed off the M74 motorway in Glasgow in what authorities have described as a targeted attack.
Incident Details
The incident occurred on the M74 eastbound off slip at Polmadie Road around 12:10 AM on Saturday, June 16. A dark blue Renault Clio deliberately crashed into a silver Nissan Micra. Three men then exited the Renault Clio armed with weapons and attacked the Nissan Micra, causing damage.
