Man jailed over Bradford shooting that left 22-year-old with life-changing injuries
A man has been jailed after a shooting in Bradford last year.
Mohammed Kamal aged 25, of Girlington Road, Bradford, has admitted to section 18 wounding and possession of a firearm with intent to cause fear of violence.
The incident happened after a verbal altercation took place between a number of men on Oak Lane, Bradford on April 19 last year.
A 22-year old-man suffered life changing injuries from the shooting.
Detective Inspector Suzanne Hall of the Homicide and Major Enquiry Team said: “We welcome the sentence of Kamal today, firearms have no place in society and we take offending of this nature extremely seriously.
“The use of a firearm could have had fatal consequences; the victim is lucky to be alive. Anyone caught using a firearm will be dealt with robustly by the courts.”
Kamal was sentenced to eight years and two months in jail at Bradford Crown Court earlier today.
