Thugs firebombed a car outside the home of the daughter of a Scottish rail tycoon amid an alleged gangland feud.
Jennifer McLeish, whose father is millionaire railway maintenance magnate Alan McLeish, was left terrified when the gang drove a Volvo to her gate outside her Glasgow home, set it alight then fled the scene.
Firefighters rushed to the address to put out the blaze, while police gathered evidence and took photos of the crime scene. The motor had two different number plates and officers are attempting to trace its owner.
The firebombing on Saturday night reportedly comes amid an alleged ongoing gangland feud.

Ms McLeish’s Range Rover was blown up by a petrol bomb in 2020, which also set fire to the roof of the £500,000 home.
The 36-year-old’s beauty salon in Glasgow’s Dennistoun was also ram-raided just weeks later.
Last night one local told The Sun: ‘I was watching Dad’s Army on TV when these cars shot up the street.

‘I think there were two at least. A load of guys got out and there was a lot of shouting, they had Glaswegian accents. The next thing one of the cars they’d driven was on fire right next to the house.’
A Police Scotland spokesperson told MailOnline: ‘We were called around 7.45pm on Saturday, 7 January, to a report of a fire at a property in the Bellshill Road area of Bothwell.
‘The fire was put out by the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service and no one was injured.
‘Enquiries are ongoing to establish the full circumstances.’
