Plymouth shooting: firearms inquiry officer had no formal training, jury told

Inquest hears from police staff member who processed Jake Davison's application for shotgun certificate

A police staff member who recommended the Plymouth gunman Jake Davison be granted a shotgun certificate had not received any formal training but rather had to learn on the job", an inquest has heard.

David Rees knew Davison had carried out violent assaults on teachers but told the inquest in Exeter this did not concern him as it had been dealt with internally and he had apologised.
