Air rifle shooting.

[Jonny8888]

Some idiots i know decided to shoot some people with an air rifle. They did it from inside a house and the police dont know the location of the weapon. What sorta of charges would they be facing? What sort of punishment shoudl they be expecting?>

[Sofie]

ABH or battery I think? It will depend on how serious the injuries are.

[Jonny8888]

that doesnt sound too bad?

[Sofie]

You mean 5 years (ABH) or 6 months (battery) in prison (max.) doesn't sound too bad?

[Jonny8888]

damn

[MrG]

am i right or wrong in thinking that there could be another charge of using a non licenced weapon in an incorrect capacity or something like that?

[otter]

ABH / GBH would most likely be what they'd be charged with.
and for shooting someone (with an air rifle) :yes: there should be a seperate charge imo

damn
What were you expecting? They SHOT someone

[Kermit]

It depends on the injuries, but if I was a prosecutor I'd be going for at least ABH and firearms offences.

If they get caught I think they should be expecting porridge.

[MrG]

cold lumpy stuff at that

They got 3 months if anyone was wondering.
