A man in Scotland tried to rob his own son at knife point

In an unusual incident in Glasgow, Scotland, a man attempted to rob his own son at knife point. BBC informed of. Interestingly, the man was unaware that the target was his own son. The incident took place in November last year, when a 45-year-old masked man targeted a teenage boy at an ATM in Cranhill, Glasgow.

The 17-year-old victim had used a cash machine near her home to withdraw £10 (Rs 986). After taking the cash, the teenager noticed a masked man dressed in black lurking nearby.

Describing the incident, prosecutor Carrie Stevens said, “As he put his card in his pocket and took out the cash from the machine, he turned to the left and felt something on the left side of his face. He was pinned to the wall by the neck.” I went.” The boy felt a large kitchen knife pressed against his face.

The hooded man then demanded that she give him the money.

However, the teenager immediately recognized her father’s voice and was stunned. He asked his father, “Are you serious? Do you know who it is?” When the assailant said he didn’t care, the boy pulled down his lashes and asked, “What are you doing?”

She replied, “I’m sorry, I’m desperate.”

The son soon fled from the spot and narrated the incident to his family members before informing the police. The robber was later arrested and later confessed to his crime. Pleading guilty to the charge of attempting to rob the victim, he said, “I didn’t know he was at the cash machine. I did it. I’ll do time for it.”

Sheriff Andrew Cubby, who sentenced the man to 26 months, told the court, “This is an extraordinary set of events.”
