Telford: So, there was this driver, Endean Palmer, who tried to escape from the police. He was driving even though he was disqualified. Not a smart move, right?
He took off when the cops spotted him, but they caught up with him pretty quickly. When they searched his car, they found a gun, some bullets, and drugs. Yikes!
Palmer, who’s 34 and lives in Hammerfields, Woodside, got hit with some serious charges. He was found guilty of having a firearm without a license, dangerous driving, and a few other things. In the end, he got a seven-year sentence.
West Mercia Police made a statement about it, saying they take firearms offenses really seriously. They’re glad to have taken a dangerous driver off the road and a lethal weapon out of the community.
They also encouraged anyone who knows about weapons in their area to report it. If someone feels uneasy talking to the police, they can reach out to Crimestoppers instead.
