Tragedy struck during the Hogmanay celebrations in Edinburgh as Marc Webley, a 36-year-old with a criminal past, was shot dead outside the Anchor Inn pub. Webley, who had recently split from his high-profile ex-girlfriend, EuroMillions lottery winner Jane Park, was killed while partying with friends just before midnight. The incident has left the community in shock, and police are now on the hunt for the gunman responsible.

Webley, known for his association with gangs and carrying weapons, had reportedly confided in close friends that he anticipated an attack. Miss Jane Park, who gained fame by winning £1 million in 2013 at the age of 17, had been in a relationship with Webley until last month. She expressed her grief on Instagram, sharing a photo of them and stating that she had spoken to him just the day before.
