Baby-faced cannabis dealer Harry O'Brien was the boy behind three shootings and a firebombing
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.
Charlotte Kenny, prosecuting, described how officers were then called to reports of a car accident on nearby Miles Street in Toxteth minutes later. Kelly had been the rider of a green Triumph bike which collided with a car being driven by a member of the public near to the Tesco Extra supermarket on Park Road, reports the Liverpool Echo.
Gunshot residue was subsequently discovered on Kelly's clothing, while a pair of gloves which were recovered with his blood on them similarly containing traces of gunpowder. Three bullet casings were discovered on Erin Close, having been fired from a self-loading pistol which has never been found. Kelly's criminal record amounts to 17 convictions for 30 offences, including for burglary and robbery. He is currently serving a seven-year sentence imposed in April last year for possession of a firearm and ammunition.
When police arrived at the address late that night, they searched communal gardens outside the flat. There, hidden under soil and gravel, was a black bin bag containing a New Army 1892 Colt .41 revolver.
