The 19-year-old gangster who fled police in stolen Range Rover, crashed it through a brick wall and told cops: "I do admit I am stoned"

A stoned gun thug smashed a stolen Range Rover through a brick wall and wrote off a woman's car. Daniel Lawler, 19, joined 16-year-old gang boss Harry O'Brien in two 'callous and cowardly' shootings on an electric bike.

The pair fired into a family's occupied living room and shot into another victim's bedroom as part of a violent feud. Cannabis dealer O'Brien also launched a third shooting and a firebombing on a mum's home. Last week he was locked up for nine years and eight months.

Lawler, now 21, has also been found guilty of being part of O'Brien's firearms plot. He also admitted dangerous driving and handling stolen goods, the Liverpool Echo has reported.
