Robert Graham was mowed down by a silver Toyota Yaris as he crossed the street in Springbank Road, Paisley, on April 21, 2022.

The then 37-year-old was targeted following an earlier dispute over drugs.

Stuart Lindsay, 31, David Sherry, 36, and Daniel Millan, 27, were convicted of attempted murder in March.

The trio returned to the High Court in Glasgow yesterday to be sentenced by judge Lord Mulholland.

Lindsay and Sherry were each jailed for 12 years while Millan was locked up for 10-and-a-half years.

Prosecutors said the trio and two others had all acted together as part of a “coordinated plan to inflict violence” on Graham that evening.

Jurors heard how the Yaris and an Audi driven by Lindsay had gone to Paisley in convoy.
