Landlord fires shotgun to frighten tenants


A Norfolk landlord, who fired his 12 bore shotgun into the air to scare his tenants from a mobile home he was renting to them has been handed an eight month prison sentence at Norwich Crown Court.

Landlord Marcus Strong, 64, shot his gun into the air as he walked towards the tenants before announcing they had five minutes to vacate the mobile home.

Mr Strong was described as having 'lost control'.

The tenants, an elderly couple, managed to ring for police before Strong grabbed the phone and broke it in half.

The mobile home was sited in the grounds of Mr Strong's home at Gunthorpe Lane, Briningham, Melton Constable.

Strong’s firearms licence has since been revoked .
