Scene outside Monaghan's bar in Spain after fatal double shooting of Scots gangsters A brave nurse has told how she held the hand of Lyons crime clan hood Ross Monaghan as he lay dying
from horror gunshot wounds. Monaghan was brutally executed in a double gangland murder alongside Eddie Lyons Jnr in his own bar in the Costa Del Sol on Saturday evening, May 31. The British
nurse was quick on the scene after having a drink with her partner in a nearby bar when a masked gunman fired fatal rounds at the two Lyons crime lords, at Monaghan's bar in Fuengirola,
reports the Mirror. The nurse, who asked not to be named, said she ran to help after she heard the shots. She said: "I was sitting with my partner in a pub when we heard one shot
followed by a gap and then four more shots. We all ran into the bar and I was shouting 'get inside'. "At the time they were celebrating the football because the game had just
ended. Someone said a person had been shot and because I'm a nurse I ran to Monaghan's bar to see if I could help." Article continues below Grim CCTV has shown Monaghan
scrambling to escape his killer. The footage was captured seconds after Lyons Jnr, 46, was gunned down outside the bar. It shows Monaghan, 43, with blood seeping through his white t-shirt
from a chest wound, propping himself up on a table before collapsing. The footage shows the gunman - who was dressed in black - chasing Monaghan. Two bystanders, thought to be a waitress and
another man in black, can be seen running away from the suspect. JOIN THE DAILY RECORD WHATSAPP COMMUNITY! Get the latest news sent straight to your messages by joining our WhatsApp

appeared to be a bullet wound in his chest and one in his abdomen. A bar lady told me there was another one in the bar. "The other man, Ross, had one shot in his chest, just on the
right side. He was lying on the floor and was still alive but his breathing was laboured. He was wearing a white T-shirt and shorts and trainers and he looked younger than 43. "There
was blood everywhere, on the floor and around the service hatch to the kitchen. There was nothing I could do, he wasn't bleeding from his mouth so I just held his hand, stroked his hair
and waited for the emergency services." The Record understands the shootings are linked to Scotland's ongoing gangland war. No arrests have been made. Spanish police said: “The
investigation is continuing into the fatal shooting of two men at a pub in Fuengirola, with nothing new at the moment.” Monaghan, who fled Scotland in 2017, to head for the Costa Del Sol is
listed as the proprietor of the bar in an online business directory. Article continues below The gangland figure touched town in Malaga in January 2017, after he was shot twice in a gun
attack outside a primary school in Glasgow. Monaghan was reportedly shot twice by a gunman lurking outside St George's Primary, Penilee.
