A thug whose motorbike crash caused a shooting plot to unravel then stashed a loaded revolver in a fish tank on behalf of a 16-year-old gang boss.
Nathan Kelly was a regular customer of baby-faced cannabis dealer Harry O'Brien, the boy behind three terrifying shootings and a firebombing carried out in Dingle. And he agreed to mind a gun on behalf of the teen, despite already being firmly in the sights of the police after being part of a convoy which opened fire with a pistol in the street while children played nearby.
Liverpool Crown Court heard last week that police received reports of shots being fired on Erin Close in Dingle shortly before 8.15pm on July 24, 2019. A nan who dialled 999 stated that she had "heard bangs" while out in her garden with her daughter and grandchildren and that "other people were out in the street", adding: "This just isn't on."
