Perhaps you should have omitted the word 'air' when you told the coppers in the first place - you could realistically not have been sure what they were actually holding
Just thought. Early seventies we bought air rifles from Argos (you could then) We took the to some waste ground and collected load of tins for targets. Anyway the police came, down every access path to the wasteland. Not sure who they were, they had blue overalls and dogs. We were carted off to the cells until our parents were informed, or parent in my case.
Let off and never heard anymore about it. Different now.
Halifax courier reporting 3 people arrested on Tueday with air rifles after shooting at buildings. I'm no Columbo but that is quite a coincidence. I would have though the police would have spoken to me to see if there was a link but I have heard nothing.
Saw that on the rag website... Coincidence indeed.
Paramedic here .
Attended a similar incident 14 years ago
Air rifle hit a 4 year old in his chest.
Small indent no bleeding near to left nipple.
Could not find flattened pellet so presumed worst.
Scan revealed pellet had entered left ventricle of the heart.
He survived..
