The ex-boyfriend of one of the world�s youngest lottery winners has been
shot dead in an altercation on New Year�s Eve.

Jane Parks, 28, is the UK�s youngest ever EuroMillions winner, having won
�1 million ($1.22 million, by today�s exchange rate) in the lottery in
2013, when she was just 17 years old.

She had been tied to Marc Webley, 36, for about a year in an on-and-off
relationship.

But on Sunday, Webley was shot dead during New Year�s celebrations in
their hometown of Edinburgh, Scotland.

The incident is said to have taken place outside the Anchor Inn in the
city�s north just moments before people rang in the new year at midnight.

Webley was a known figure in Edinburgh�s gangland scene, having previously
served 11 years in jail for shooting a gang rival.

He was cleared of two attempted murders last year, having been accused of
repeatedly slamming his car into another vehicle with two people inside.

Park revealed she had spoken to Webley the night before he died.

��I can�t believe I�m writing this. We spoke yesterday. If I could cuddle
you again and tell you everything is going to be OK I would give anything
to do it, Marc,� she wrote on Monday.

�The months we spent together, you taught me some valuable things in life
and I�ll never ever forget you.

�I am absolutely devastated. The best bed for you is up there, My
Handsome.�

Previously Park had posted pictures of them together on social media,
including the picture she reposted today, but the relationship appeared to
have ended when she wrote on December 17: �There�s nothing worse than
being single on a Sunday.�

Scottish police confirmed road closures were in place surrounding the pub
after the NYE shooting.

�Road closures are in place on Granton Road and Granton Crescent following
an incident which was reported to police around 11:50 p.m. on Sunday,
December 31,� a spokeswoman said.

�Officers are at the scene and closures will remain in place while
inquiries continue to establish the full circumstances.�

Locals reported hearing gunshots in the area where it happened, saying
they initially believed the bangs to be fireworks.

�I thought it was fireworks at first then saw all the blue lights,
ambulances, and armed police,� one person told local publication Edinburgh
Live.

�It was bedlam just before the bells.�

Webley�s older brother, Don, posted a picture of them together on social
media after his death.

Park left a single love heart as a tribute on the photograph.

With his untimely departure she might actually have hit the lottery a
second time.

Aside from the two attempted murder charges, this fine lad seemed like a
real catch.

And the 11 years he spent in the pokey.

Sounds like an upstanding citizen. How could she let him go the first time
