Two men accused in connection with a planned shooting in Smethwick, West Midlands, are described as having been involved in a botched incident in which one man allegedly fired a weapon by mistake. According to the report, Adam Liaqat, 19, and Adad Khan, 22, were parked together while preparing to carry out a shooting. The account states that Liaqat, who was driving, accidentally discharged his weapon before the attack was carried out. The shot hits Khan in the leg, leaving him in pain while they were still at the scene. The report characterizes the incident as preventing the planned attack from taking place as intended. It describes the men’s presence in a vehicle and the moment Liaqat fired in error, rather than a deliberate start to the shooting. The information provided does not detail subsequent arrests, charges beyond the allegations, or the extent of Khan’s injuries. The report therefore focuses on the circumstances leading up to the planned shooting and the alleged accidental shooting between the two men.
