Patrick Carraher

Patrick Carraher (1906 – 6 April 1946) was a notorious criminal from Glasgow.

Known as "the Fiend of the Gorbals", he was a well-known figure at the time of fights between rival Glasgow razor gangs. Despite being born into a respectable working-class family in the Gorbals area, Carraher loved to fight; he first spent time in a borstal at 14, the first of many imprisonments.

Carraher was arrested on 13 August 1934 for stabbing to death James Shaw, a soldier.
