A 22-year-old man found with an an arsenal of deadly firearms, and drugs, also posed with guns wearing a mask "glorifying" what he had. JJ Logan Cross was arrested after a yellow cardboard box of guns and ammunition were found in a storage unit in Meadow Road, Beeston, on December 11, 2021.
The guns were: A shortened Russian Baikal 27E-1C bore shotgun, a Webley Mk VI revolver, a Smith and Wesson 'Double Action First model' revolver, and a Colt DA .41 revolver. Cross's fingerprint was on the flap of the box and the triggers of each firearm, Nottingham Crown Court heard on Thursday (January 26).
The rental of the unit had been taken over by an innocent party to store building materials. Cross visited this man's address, wearing a balaclava, and rang the door bell - but left before he answered the door.
