A 31-year-old man has been sentenced to more than six years for attempted murder and other offences at the High Court in Edinburgh.
Lewis Burns pleaded guilty in May this year to assault to severe injury, permanent disfigurement and attempted murder.
It follows an investigation into an incident which occurred on Tuesday, 3 February, 2026, when police were called to a report of a collision involving a pedestrian and a vehicle on Lochend Drive.
Detective Inspector Gavin Howat said: “Burns deliberately drove at his victim not once but twice. He used his car as a weapon that day and he is now facing the consequences of his actions.
“I hope today’s outcome affords the victim a degree of justice as they continue to move forward with their life.”
Burns was also banned from driving for more than eight years.
