A DOZEN firearms, as well as imitation guns, rounds of ammunition and drugs were found at a Bradford house where a man was shot dead with his own gun during a police raid, an inquest heard today.

Eight unarmed officers were involved in the raid on Colin Berry's home in Buckingham Crescent, Clayton, on April 4, 2013, which they suspected contained a cannabis farm.

But the jury inquest heard that although police found MDMA tablets, amphetamine and cannabis, there was no trace of any cannabis production taking place on the premises - the reason for the warrant in the first place.

Detective Constable Mubarik Wasti, of West Yorkshire Police's Homicide and Major Enquiry Team, told the hearing at Bradford Crown Court that he had been responsible for compiling a list of items seized following the raid, but was not part of the team that executed the warrant.

There were a dozen firearms, including handguns, pistols, revolvers, and rifles.

There were also a number of imitation guns, such as revolvers and pistols capable of firing blanks only, and others that were deactivated, so could not be fired at all.

In addition dozens of rounds of ammunition were seized.

He was asked to confirm whether a cannabis farm was found at the home - to which he replied: "There was nothing like that".

Last week, the inquest at Bradford Crown Court heard that officers followed Mr Berry to an upstairs bedroom of the house. A struggle ensued between Mr Berry and one of the police officers, referred to as officer A, during which Mr Berry suffered a single gunshot wound.

The 49-year-old father-of-three was pronounced dead at the scene.

The final officer involved in the raid to give evidence, referred to as officer B, told the inquest that he had been involved in administering CPR to Mr Berry after he had been shot.

He said he had followed two colleagues - officers A and C upstairs and was on the landing when he heard a "dull popping sound".

He told the hearing: "I could hear officer A's voice. He was trying to to gain control of whoever it was that was in the room. It was only a few seconds before I heard a loud but dull popping sound. Just once."

"I didn't know what the sound was at first," he continued. "One second or two later I got the distinct smell of spent cordite and at that point it registered to me that it was probably a gun discharging."

He described how officer A was shouting for an ambulance to be called, saying: "He's shot himself."

Officer B carried out chest compressions on Mr Berry, while his colleague gave mouth-to-mouth, and the pair continued as the paramedics arrived.

The hearing continues.
