Roller beaten up in his car
FORMER Bay City Roller Pat McGlynn was attacked in his car just days after getting out of hospital following a heart attack.
The 52-year-old guitarist was waiting at traffic lights about 200 yards from his home in Liberton when a man approached his window.
Mr McGlynn said he rolled down the window to see what the man wanted but was immediately punched on the face and head, it was reported today.
He said: "It came out of nowhere. He kept hitting me but I am still quite weak after the heart attack. I would have tried to fight him off but I just couldn't. He kept shouting about the Bay City Rollers all being paedophiles and perverts."
