A driver who killed his friend in a horror smash has been jailed for three years. Joshua Brown, 27, failed to pay attention and ended up on the wrong side of the road before losing control then hitting another motorist.

His passenger Connor O'Neill, 24, tragically died instantly. Brown had been due to go on trial following the incident on the A73 in Cleland, Lanarkshire on August 31 2019.

But, he instead pled guilty at the High Court in Glasgow to the charge of causing death by dangerous driving. An accusation that he was using a mobile phone at the time was deleted.

Brown, formerly of Hamilton, Lanarkshire, was jailed at the high court for the second time this month. He had earlier been sentenced to five years in Lanark for raping a woman in 2020.
