Raid on property in Milton of Campsie
3
Riot cop with ram device
Officers wearing tactical gear poured into the street as the convoy arrived shortly before 8am.
One cop was seen carrying a device used for battering down doors as the crack squad charged into the grounds of the property, which is connected to Green, 42.
He's the son of late Daniel gang supremo Jamie and cousin of current boss Steven 'Bonzo' Daniel, 45.
Green was also a close chum of murdered enforcer Kevin 'Gerbil' Carroll.
Last night a neighbour who saw the police raid said: 'The whole thing only took 15 minutes. It was literally in and out. It was really fast.
'I don't know what that means and whether who or what they were looking for was there.'
Another local resident added: 'I was shocked to see so many cops come out of nowhere.
'They certainly looked like they meant business but it was all over pretty quickly.
"I have no idea if anyone was arrested.'
It's understood the swoop was the latest action taken by cops in their ongoing fight against hoods involved in an underworld power struggle that has been raging across the Central Belt for more than two months.

And it came weeks after we revealed that a business linked to Green was targeted in an alleged firebomb attack.
He is one of several members of the Daniel family who have been targeted during the unprecedented campaign of violence.
A garage in nearby Kirkintilloch, where he was once a director, was set ablaze last month.
And on Tuesday the home in Drumchapel, Glasgow, of his sister Kelly 'Bo' Green, 45, was torched in another arson incident.
She was partner of Gerbil, who was 29 when he was assassinated in a supermarket car park by Billy 'Buff' Paterson, 45, in 2010.
The hitman for the rival Lyons gang was later caged for at least 22 years over the killing outside an Asda in the city's Robroyston.
The current feud is being waged by a fugitive Scot dubbed 'Miami' who is said to be pulling the strings from his bolthole in Dubai.
It's claimed he is furious about being cheated in a £500,000 cocaine deal by associates of the jailed Edinburgh mobster Mark Richardson, 38 — an ally of the Daniels.
And underworld sources claim he has rejected peace talks with Bonzo, who is believed to have travelled to the United Arab Emirates.
Last night a spokesman for Police Scotland said: 'Officers executed a warrant at an address in Milton of Campsie.
"Enquiries are ongoing.'

I was 15 when my nude pics were leaked – grown men sent them around at the football club & everyone blamed ME
NOT KIDDING I was 15 when my nude pics were leaked – grown men sent them around at the football club & everyone blamed ME Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LIKE many young girls, Jess Davies wanted to impress her school crush and decided to send him an explicit photo of herself. Little did the 15-year-old know that he would send it around the school and she would become a victim of image abuse. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 Jess Davies revealed her nude photo was leaked at just 15-years-old Credit: Instagram/jessdavies "That image got bluetoothed around my school, and then it got shared around my hometown, which was a small hometown in Wales, everyone knows everyone," she explained on the Should I Delete That podcast. Image-based sexual abuse is a criminal offence, it's when someone takes, shares, or threatens to share sexually explicit images or videos of a person without their knowledge or consent, and with the aim of causing them distress or harm. This can include digitally altered images, also known as 'deepfakes' - something Jess has gone on to lobby the government to include in the Online Harms Safety Bill. Now 32, Jess has opened up about the trauma it caused and more shockingly, how she was blamed for the abuse. She revealed that once the photo had circulated in her hometown, it was then shared to grown adult men on the local football team. Instead of seeing Jess as a victim, whose private photo was shared without her consent, people blamed her. "Everyone knew my age because it was a small town, and yet, the whole narrative was around how it was my fault," Jess added. "That I shouldn't have sent it, what kind of girl are you? "There was never any conversation around why are men in their twenties and thirties passing around a child's image?" Jess was left as a teenage girl worrying about how to navigate the situation, and she decided she had to laugh it off. 2 Now, she advocates for sexual abuse victims Credit: Instagram/jessdavies Vicky Pattison shares deepfake porn clip of herself as she warns of dangers on C4 doc She revealed that boys in year 7 would run up and ask for a hug as they had seen the image as well. "I was laughing but secretly, this was humiliating," she said. In the end, her parents also found out about the image, as her nan was told about it from one of the men on the football team, where the image was being circulated. Now, as Jess has gotten older, she realises that the way people treated her for the image was not okay and that she was held more accountable than the grown men sharing the image. It has now led Jess to become an advocate for female rights and sexual abuse. Her BBC documentary 'Deepfake Porn: Could You Be Next' was used to lobby the UK government to criminalise deepfake porn. Jess also has a new book, No One Wants To See Your Dick, a guide for surviving the digital age to help us understand and tackle online misogyny and question society's understanding of consent.

While he did turn up for the date, Emmy obviously didn't but he did send him a savage message from her new persona. "When he did, I texted and said I saw him but left because I thought he was too ugly," she said. But her revenge plot didn't end there. Later, when he came home to Emmy with his tail tucked between his legs, she decided to give him the same treatment. She broke up with him then and there, telling him she didn't find him attractive anymore. 3 Women are praising her for getting her own back Credit: tiktok/@emstove22 How my 'perfect' beauty regime exposed my ex as a cheating rat - what his other woman did is totally unforgivable But the clever woman didn't let him know she knew he was cheating or that she was one of the 'girls' he cheated with to make him feel even worse about being called unattractive twice in one day.

People were quick to praise her revenge tactic with some claiming she should do it again. Four red flags your partner is cheating Private Investigator Aaron Bond from BondRees revealed four warning signs your partner might be cheating. They start to take their phone everywhere with them In close relationships, it's normal to know each other's passwords and use each other's phones, if their phone habits change then they may be hiding something. Aaron says: "If your partner starts changing their passwords, starts taking their phone everywhere with them, even around the house or they become defensive when you ask to use their phone it could be a sign of them not being faithful." "You should also look at how they place their phone down when not in use. If they face the phone with the screen facing down, then they could be hiding something." They start telling you less about their day When partners cheat they can start to avoid you, this could be down to them feeling guilty or because it makes it easier for them to lie to you. "If you feel like your partner has suddenly begun to avoid you and they don't want to do things with you any more or they stop telling you about their day then this is another red flag." "Partners often avoid their spouses or tell them less about their day because cheating can be tough, remembering all of your lies is impossible and it's an easy way to get caught out," says Aaron. Their libido changes Your partner's libido can change for a range of reasons so it may not be a sure sign of cheating but it can be a red flag according to Aaron. Aaron says: "Cheaters often have less sex at home because they are cheating, but on occasions, they may also have more sex at home, this is because they feel guilty and use this increase in sex to hide their cheating. You may also find that your partner will start to introduce new things into your sex life that weren't there before." They become negative towards you Cheaters know that cheating is wrong and to them, it will feel good, this can cause tension and anxiety within themselves which they will need to justify. "To get rid of the tension they feel inside they will try to convince themselves that you are the problem and they will become critical of you out of nowhere. Maybe you haven't walked the dog that day, put the dishes away or read a book to your children before bedtime. A small problem like this can now feel like a big deal and if you experience this your partner could be cheating," warns Aaron. One person wrote: "Big fan of your work." Another commented: 'Him losing twice the same night is gold." "Ma'am you are a psychological genius," penned a third. "He's still thinking about that to this day. In fact his new girlfirend has to remind him he's beautiful once a week." Meanwhile a fourth said: "He was trying to play checkers but BABYYY you were playing CHESS." "Not gonna lie that's a pretty solid way of handling that,' claimed a fifth. Someone else added: 'Girl, if you don't catfish him every year like it's a nationally observed holiday, what are you doing with your life? Get him again."
