Inverness Sheriff Court: 2nd man charged with attempted murder over nightspot attack in Highland capital
A second person has appeared in private at Inverness Sheriff Court charged with the attempted murder of a man in a popular Inverness nightspot last month.
Aiden Mackenzie, aged 20 from Westhill, Inverness, made no plea to two charges - one of an alleged glassing in Johnny Foxes on April 13 and the second of behaving in a threatening and coercive manner towards his partner or ex-partner between August 1, 2024 and the date of the alleged glass incident on April 13.
That charge read that Mackenzie was acting with Finlay Laird and induced him to repeatedly strike Daniel Mackay on the head and body with a glass or similar object to his severe injury, permanent disfigurement and to the danger of his life and did attempt to murder him.
Mackenzie was represented by Inverness solicitor David Patterson and was committed for further examination by Sheriff Eilidh Macdonald who released Mackenzie on bail.
