Shooting in Hollycarrside?

[kamaras-tash]

I used to be too scared to walk through as a child. Probably still am a bit.

Was brought up on Hewitt Avenue, number 4 then 49. It used to be a bit rough years ago but seems quiet now. I just had a walk up there to see if I bumped into anyone and got told the same story as what superflex posted, some young un on a ped got shot with a slingshot catapult and knocked off his ped and is in a coma

When I first read "Firearms incident in Hewitt avenue", I thought someone had been found without one.

Number 4? the people who have been locked up live in 49 if it's who I think it is

they've moved the RVI?

He was taken to the Royal Victoria infirmary in Sunderland, where he remains in a critical condition, Northumbria police said.

Just been on the beeb as well. Bit of an extreme response shooting him but 15 year olds riding up and down on pedal and pops are f***ing irritating.

There has been a firearms incident on Hewitt Avenue, the Echo have a video up on FB with that headline but it just shows the street and no info

Just round the corner from where my grandma lives!

Was it a gun or catapult then?

You can make a silencer with a used plastic bottled and some duct tape

Does it have to be used?

Probably a Gat, for anybody who remembers them.

Polis says either a gun or air gun.
