Lyons Crime Family

The Lyons Crime Family is a British crime firm in Glasgow, Scotland involved in various organised crime activities, including drug trafficking, money laundering, extortion and violence. Since 2001, the Lyons family has been embroiled in a longstanding and deadly feud with another Glasgow-based crime family, the Daniel Crime Family.

The family's origins can be traced back to the Possilpark area of Glasgow, where the Lyons family had lived for generations. The Lyons are known for their brutal tactics. Over the years, the Lyons Crime Family has been involved in a number of high-profile crimes, including the murder of Kevin 'Gerbil' Carroll in 2010. The organisation has also been linked to a number of drug trafficking and money laundering operations.

The Glasgow Times noted in November 2022 that "Lyons is feeling the heat after the recent busts and left Dubai. A lot of his trusted inner circle are either in jail or in exile, which has left him feeling vulnerable. He needed to make a change."

History
The feud between the Lyons and Daniel families began in 2001 when a consignment of cocaine belonging to the Daniels was stolen from a house in the Milton area of Glasgow and sold by the Lyons.
