Three men who attempted to murder another man with a hammer and machete have been jailed.

Robert Morrison, 20, James Berry, 19, and Kevin Berry, 27, attacked Jamie Esson in Paisley, Renfrewshire, last April.

The 31-year-old victim was struck with a hammer, a knife and a machete during the vicious assault.

On Tuesday, the trio returned to the High Court in Glasgow having earlier been convicted of attempted murder.

They were sentenced to a total of 22 years in prison.

Lord Kinclaven told them: "There is no alternative to a significant custodial sentence."

James Berry, who was on bail at the time, was sentenced to seven years and eight months, while Kevin Berry was jailed for eight years.

Morrison was locked up for six years and five months for his part in the attack.

Jurors were earlier shown footage of the assault, which was captured on CCTV.

Prosecutor Bernard Ablett said: "In attacking Jamie Esson with a knife, hammer and a machete, they all acted together with no thought of the consequences for him.

"There was also a complete indifference as to whether he lived or died."

The court was told the victim spent several days in hospital and has been left scarred for life.
