Resident Demands Access to Licensed Firearms

Following the murder of a customer service representative in St James last week, a distraught resident of Green Pond is demanding access to licensed firearms. The incident comes on the heels of a murder spree in the town in which several bystanders were injured by stray bullets and properties destroyed.

The victim was identified as 33-year-old Munair Beckford of Albion Mews, St James. The police were summoned to the scene where Beckford’s body was found in his car with multiple gunshot wounds to the upper body. He was pronounced dead at the hospital.

With recurring murders in St James one resident of Green Pond says the recent killings should not be blamed on the government’s mismanagement, but rather criminal inclinations.

He also says the Prime Minister should ponder the idea of allowing men over forty with no criminal record to own licensed firearms.
