Pat the Rat

A FLAMBOYANT Scots gangster has been arrested after a police officer was shot on the Costa del Crime.

Millionaire Pat McCadden, 52, is behind bars while Spanish police investigate the attempted murder of a fellow officer.

McCadden, nicknamed Pat the Rat, and his family live in a stunning mansion in the upmarket Costa del Sol resort of Marbella after fleeing a £1million tax bill in Scotland.

Yesterday, Spain's national police, the Cuerpo Nacional de Polic'a, refused to discuss the investigation into the rogue businessman turned drugs Mr Big.
