A MAN has appeared in court charged with murdering Kevin "Gerbil" Caroll more than four years ago.
William Paterson, is accused of repeatedly shooting and killing 29-year-old Mr Carroll outside Asda in Robroyston on January 13, 2010.
He has also been charged with possessing a Ruger .357 Magnum gun and 9mm self loading pistol.

He faces a fourth charge of stealing a car on September 22, 2009 in Rutherglen, South Lanarkshire.
He appeared in private at Glasgow Sheriff Court yesterday and made no plea or declaration.
Paterson was remanded in custody by sheriff Kenneth Mitchell and will appear again next week for full committal.
