A 25-year-old man has been convicted of culpable homicide following the death of a man in Inverclyde.

Lewis Mullen was found guilty on Thursday following proceedings at the High Court in Glasgow.

On the evening of 27 April 2024, emergency services were called to Brookfield Road in Port Glasgow.

There, 27-year-old Jack Trainner was found seriously injured.

He died at the scene.

Detective Superintendent Graham McCreadie said: “Our thoughts remain with the family and loved ones of Jack, whose life was taken far too soon.

“This was a senseless and devastating crime for not only his family but the local community."
