An Edinburgh man has appeared in court in connection to gangland turf wars that have erupted in Edinburgh <\/a>before spreading to Glasgow.<\/p>\n Edinburgh Live reports<\/a> how Paul MacAuley, 38, appeared in the dock at Edinburgh Sheriff Court on Thursday charged with theft, reset, culpable and reckless conduct and driving without insurance.<\/p>\n It comes after the Record told how two other men appeared in court in connection with the violent gang wars. Ryan Carin, 23, and Sean Doyle, 24, appeared at Glasgow Sheriff Court on Tuesday charged after a vehicle had failed to stop for officers in Robroyston following disruption activity shortly after 2.35am on Saturday, April 19.<\/a><\/p>\n We told how the car allegedly left the scene before being ditched on an off-road track near to Chryston a short time later. Carlin, from Airdrie, was charged with conspiracy and various road traffic offences – including driving dangerously, failing to stop for an officer, knowing that a vehicle they were in had been taken without authority, reset and failing to provide a breath<\/a>, blood, or urine specimen.<\/p>\n Carlin made no plea and was committed for further examination. He was remanded in custody to appear again at court within eight days. Doyle, from Wishaw, was charged with conspiracy, reset and knowing that a vehicle they were in had been taken without authority. He made no plea, was committed for further examination and was remanded in custody to appear <\/a>again at within eight days.<\/p>\n A 16-year-old male was also arrested and charged with reset of a stolen vehicle and culpable and reckless behaviour. He was due to appear in Edinburgh Sheriff Court on Thursday<\/a>. Due to legal reasons, however, the appearance details for the teenager could not be released by the court.<\/p>\n Officers also executed warrants at two properties in South Queensferry on Thursday. Firearms were seized from both addresses. Two men, aged 36 and 38, have been arrested and charged in connection with firearms offences. Both men are due to appear in Edinburgh Sheriff Court on Friday.<\/a><\/p>\n The war first broke out after Richardson’s crew stole \u00a3500k from Mr Big in a cocaine deal – Mr Big is also targeting the Daniel crime clan in Glasgow due to their association with the Edinburgh mob boss. Steven ‘Bonzo’ Daniel<\/a> is believed to be the head of the family following his uncle Jamie’s cancer death in 2016.<\/p>\n He was left with grotesque facial wounds during a gangland attack by rival members of the Lyons crew in 2017. His plush \u00a3340k home in Bishopbriggs was rammed with a car in 2022, causing considerable damage to the property.<\/a><\/p>\n A source has warned that Mr Big’s enforcers, going by the name of Tamo Junto, <\/a>are planning “direct violence” against their rivals, with phase two of their vendetta set to be actioned.<\/p>\n Get the latest news sent straight to your messages by joining our WhatsApp community today.<\/p>\n You’ll receive daily updates on breaking news as well as the top headlines across Scotland.<\/p>\n No one will be able to see who is signed up and no one can send messages except the Daily Record team.<\/p>\n All you have to do is click here if you’re on mobile<\/strong><\/a>, select ‘Join Community’ and you’re in!<\/p>\n If you’re on a desktop, simply scan the QR code above with your phone and click ‘Join Community’.<\/p>\n We also treat our community members to special offers, promotions, and adverts from us and our partners.

While we believe these incidents <\/a>are linked to rival groups who are targeting each other, I want to make it clear this violence will not be tolerated.<\/p>\n “As well as carrying out these days of action and disruption activities, there is a lot of work going on behind the scenes, including exploring forensic opportunities and analysis of digital devices. While this may not be as visible, please be assured we are working tirelessly to build cases and are following a number of significant lines of enquiry.<\/a><\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/1744442896_526_0_WACOMMUNITYQR2.png\")
