The Daily Mail also states he had an overpowered air rifle. Across the available coverage, the emphasis is on proximity to completion of the printed parts and on the presence of ammunition compatible with the alleged weapon. No additional details from other outlets were provided here, including charges, court proceedings, or confirmed technical findings.
