    Himm read that...."Police were called to a house on Tyrone St in Otara about 5pm after reports there had been a shooting - and arrived to find a sawn-off shotgun and a man with a serious head wound."
    Sawn-off shotgun?
    Since when are they legal?

    As long as it is over 762mm then there is nothing wrong with it. I have one that I have "sawn" off sitting at 765mm, whats your issue?

    It sounds like this guy was being a numpty and would be right to be charged if there were any details but presumably he shot himself through stupid handling yes but my point is that the officer in this incident also displayed very poor handling skills and the case shows that we need to train the cops more often as, just like everybody else, some of them are a bit dense
