Belle quickly locked the doors before Lachlan could get in but the car cut out when Belle was reversing. Lachlan caught up and Belle swung open the door, bashing Lachlan's leg where he had been injured by the gunshot wound. She made a run for it, and he went into pursuit, finally catching up to her. He confronted her and realised that Belle had been playing him since the revelation, and began to believe Belle didn't really love him. When Belle runs off, Lachlan goes in pursuit, but trips and fires the gun, making Belle go even faster in the opposite direction. He eventually made it onto the road where he was horrified to find that she had been hit by Robert's car and accused Robert of running Belle over for revenge. He tried to awaken Belle but armed officers arrived as well as an ambulance and Lachlan was arrested. Lachlan demands to know if Belle is alright, but DI Cox refuses to disclose any information about her condition. Knowing there is a search out for Rebecca, Lachlan tells DI Cox that he will disclose Rebecca's whereabouts if he is allowed to see Belle. Months later, Belle finds a number of items, including dead flowers and a birthday card, on her doorstep and automatically assumes Lachlan is behind them. After Gloria the pig is killed, she arranges a visit with Lachlan to find out what he is up to. It emerges that Lachlan has promised his father Donny money to intimidate and get revenge on the Dingles. It is unknown what Lachlan was facing but it seems Lachlan was possibly charged with: four counts of murder, grievous bodily harm, kidnapping, false imprisonment, possession of an illegal firearm and other charges including: conspiracy to arson, attempted murder, assaulting a police officer and perverting the course of justice. Lachlan is then sentenced to life in prison. Other characters References External links Characters and cast at itv.com Characters and cast at the Internet Movie Database 2014 , Emmerdale
