Phone call lured victim to his death

Dad tricked into waiting outside

Gangland execution victim Gary More took a phone call from “someone he trusted” minutes before his death.

The Airdrie dad-of-two was asked to go outside to be picked up to do a job – but it was a ruse to make him an easy target.

When the car pulled up at his house in Gartness, he was shot repeatedly while children playing nearby looked on.

Police have hit a wall of silence on the killing despite emotional appeals from the 32-year-old’s family to help snare the assassin.

The gym boss was believed to be a gangland debt collector with links to a Glasgow crime clan.

At the weekend, a gangland associate of More told our sister paper, the Daily Record: “Someone he trusted has phoned and asked him to go and do something for them. He was told he was getting picked up and that’s the reason he was where he was at the time.

“It’s a tried and tested tactic and there’s no coincidence he was shot there in the driveway.”

More’s sister Lynsey earlier made an emotional public appeal following her brother’s death. She revealed he had died in her arms and described him as “a good person with a good heart”.

Pleading for anyone with information that might help the police investigation to move forward, she said: “Please don’t let another family suffer the way we have. If you know anything, please tell the police.”

A stolen white Skoda Fabia thought to have been used by the gunman was found burnt out near the village of Balmore, north of Glasgow.

There were sightings of a car matching its description in and around Airdrie after the murder and it is thought there were a number of people in the vehicle.
