Detectives are now appealing for information from the public to help find the men behind the brutal attack.

Detective Inspector Jim Bradley from Greater Glasgow CID said: “This targeted attack was carried out in a residential street in broad daylight and the men responsible not only endangered the life of the victim, but other members of the public in the surrounding area.

“It is absolutely vital that we trace these abhorrent individuals and we would urge anyone with information that could assist our enquiries to come forward."

The passenger in the Audi is described as late 30’s clean shaven, and wearing a dark tammy hat and a dark hoody.
