Firearms officers shot a man accused of assembling weapons for a 'revenge' killing spree at his former primary school. Reed Wischhusen, 32, was seen in body worn footage rushing down the stairs to confront cops with a gun.
Reed Wischhusen, 32, was arrested near Weston-Super-Mare last NovemberA gun obsessive has been convicted of plotting a Dunblane-style massacre against school bullies and police with an arsenal of DIY firearms built in his shed.
His ‘hitman-style attack’ included a kill list of a dozen people, including primary school bullies, teachers he disliked and police staff who had denied him a firearms licence. The warehouse worker excused himself to go to the toilet, moments later sending the officers into panic when they heard the sound of a gun being cocked and fired.
During his evidence, Wischhusen had tried to portray himself as a fantasist who was only interested in guns as a hobby and had no intention of trying to use them. He claimed he had run at police with the firearm so they would shoot him dead.
