Bradley Welsh shooting

Forty-two-year-old Bradley Welsh was shot on the doorstep on his home in Edinburgh on Tuesday, April 16th.

The actor, famous for his role in 2017 film T2 Trainspotting as Mr Doyle, died on the spot.

Police are treating the death as murder and are carrying out an investigation.

Who is Bradley Welsh?

Bradley was a former British ABA lightweight boxing champion and landed the role in Trainspotting thanks to his natural ability to fit the bill as a ‘hardman boxer’.

It was here where he struck up a close relationship with Trainspotting author Irvine Welsh, who has lead tributes on Twitter.

Bradley also featured in Danny Dyer’s 2008 Deadliest Men series, where he featured on the series as ‘Britain’s youngest criminal mastermind’ at the age of just 17.

A Hibs supporter, Bradley was involved in charity projects across Edinburgh, helping youngsters to steer away from crime through his Holyrood Boxing Gym scheme.
