Hell's Angel has been cleared of possessing a lethal handgun found at the motor cycling enthusiasts' base

Hell's Angel has been cleared of possessing a lethal handgun found at the motor cycling enthusiasts' base in Haverfordwest. But Gary Young, aged 36, was warned he still faced a prison sentence for offences he had already pleaded guilty to.
A jury at Swansea crown court took more than six hours to find Young not guilty of possessing the 8 millimetre gun, a silencer and two batches of cartridges.
They were all found at Bethany House on the Old Hakin Road, a property owned by the west Wales chapter of the Hell's Angels and used as a clubhouse. Police raided the house in May, 2007, and found the gun hidden in the rafters of a detached garage. The silencer was fitted, a bullet was in the chamber and the safety catch was turned off. Young's fingerprints were found on a plastic box containing some of the cartridges. He told the court he had touched the box while tidying the garage but had never owned or used the weapon. After the verdicts it was revealed that Young, now of North Court, Haverfordwest, had admitted possessing an over-powerful air rifle, an offensive weapon (a knuckleduster) and a small quantity of cannabis. Judge Huw Davies granted Young bail but warned him that the starting point at the sentencing hearing in January was jail.
