A gun thug gave a middle finger salute to police as he was jailed for minding a loaded revolver for teen gangsters.
Nathan Kelly was a regular customer of 16-year-old gang leader Harry O'Brien - the baby-faced cannabis dealer behind three terrifying shootings and a firebombing in Dingle.
O'Brien was sentenced yesterday alongside other members of his crew, who brought terror to the streets of South Liverpool. Despite being more than a decade older, Nathan Kelly, then 27, was said to have a "close" relationship with O'Brien.
