Man admits killing father-of-two by pushing him into path of ambulance
A young man has pleaded guilty to killing a father-of-two by pushing him into the path of an ambulance.
Robert Bromell, 39, was struck by the emergency vehicle in Oban, Argyll and Bute, during the early hours of 6 September 2023. Mr Bromell was taken to hospital with serious injuries following the incident at Corran Esplanade on the A85 and died the following day.
Lewis Budge, 22, was arrested and charged in connection with the death following a Police Scotland investigation. He admitted culpable homicide at the High Court in Glasgow on Wednesday and will be sentenced at a later date.
The crime was described as "shocking and senseless" by Inspector Gerry Shovlin. He added: "Our thoughts remain with Robert's family and friends, who have suffered a devastating loss.
"While no outcome can undo what happened, I hope this guilty plea brings some measure of comfort to them. "Violence such as this is never acceptable in our communities."
