Faces of Nottingham gang members after guns fired in the street
Police have released the images of three men jailed over their role in a revenge gang shooting in Nottingham. A jury heard how a shooting at a car in Tennyson Street, Radford, on August 3, 2018, was reciprocated with a revenge shooting weeks later in Oldknow Street, Radford, on August 21.
It can now be reported that two men - Richard Burnett and Traequam Lambert - were recently jailed at Nottingham Crown Court for assisting those who carried out the Oldknow Street shooting, as well as for their involvement in the March 2019 plot, following a trial that concluded in March this year. Lambert, 22, of HMP Nottingham, was sentenced to 18 years after the same jury found him guilty of the same offences as Richard Burnett. The judge said he was satisfied Richard Burnett was the “ring-leader” and that Lambert had played a “lesser role” – and that this was reflected in the respective sentencings.
The judge said: “You drove around looking for people. It was just luck that you missed them. I have no doubt that had you found them, these people would have been attacked by your group, wearing balaclavas and using these weapons.Following the sentencings, Detective Inspector Mark Adas said: “This was a complex investigation undertaken by a large regional team into a tit-for-tat gang rivalry that culminated in the use of guns on Nottinghamshire’s streets.
