A mob of teenage thugs were led by a 16-year-old boy in three shootings and a terrifying arson attack. Harry O'Brien was in control of a 'graft' line and a crew of dealers selling cannabis on the streets.
However, a feud that led to three shootings in three weeks exposed his trade. Bullets were fired from an Audi at a BMW in one attack, as the two cars raced side-by-side at night.
A stray bullet flew through the front door of an entirely innocent family home and landed on the hallway stairs. In another attack, a family's living room was peppered with bullets by a gunman on an electric bike, the Liverpool Echo has reported.
