Two men chased the armed gunman through the streets of Leeds with machetes
A man who was armed with a gun made the sign of a cross after he lost two men chasing him through a Leeds street with machetes.
The court heard that two firearms were used in the incident and video recordings suggested a man wearing a red balaclava could be seen running from the same direction the cars had travelled in while pointing a revolver behind him. Mitigating, Andrew Coleman argued O'Brien did not buy the firearm to "go out and commit" crimes "as some people may take a firearm to advance criminal enterprises" but as there was a threat on his life.
