    Stanley Metcalf died after being hit by an air gun pellet at Sproatley, near Hull, last July.

    Now Stanley's mum, Jenny Dees, says she wants to see the law changed in England to make it illegal to own an air rifle without a licence, as it is in other parts of the UK.

    Jenny Dees

    "I want them to go ahead with Scotland and Wales and have the same licencing laws put in place - so that's all weapons need a licence", she said.

    "It'd be an offence to own one, and to use one without that licence. But not just that - I want the education around it too."

    A petition for a change in the law has attracted more than 9,000 signatures.

    Three people on one motorbike not wearing helmets is not only illegal but extremely dangerous. We have been giving warnings about this for a long time and we know that nuisance motorbike riding and motorbike crime is a concern for residents across the force area. This incident very clearly highlights these dangers and will undoubtedly change the lives of the four young people involved.
