A killer was jailed after the murder of a disabled man in Coatbridge.
Stephen Thomson was given a life sentence with a minimum of 20 years at the High Court in Glasgow on Wednesday, July, 26, after being found guilty of murder last month.
The incident happened in the early hours of Friday, November 19, 2021 at a property on Sikeside Street in Coatbridge.
Emergency services attended and Morgan was found seriously injured.
He was taken to hospital where he died a few days later.
Detective Sergeant Mark Nelson said: “Our thoughts are with the family and friends of Mr Morgan at this difficult time for them. I hope the fact Thomson has now been sentenced will provide some kind of closure.
“I would like to thank the public for their assistance while our investigation was carried out.”
