Woman charged over death

A WOMAN has appeared in court charged with the murder of a man in a house earlier this year.

Alan Kopp, 30, from the Hillhouse area of Hamilton, South Lanarkshire, was found with stab wounds at an address in the town’s Kelvin Gardens on 9 January. He was taken by ambulance to Hairmyres Hospital in East Kilbride, but later died.

Susan Colquhoun, 42, from Hamilton, appeared in private at the town’s sheriff court yesterday charged with murder and two counts of assault.

She made no plea or declaration and was remanded in custody. She is due in court again next Friday.
