A man found guilty of blasting a father-of-six in the leg with a shotgun more than five years ago was due to be sentenced today.
Robert Whelan, 31, was convicted at Bradford Crown Court last week of having a firearm to commit an indictable offence and causing Brian Jackson grievous bodily harm in the early hours of New Year’s Day, 2007.
Whelan, then of Grayswood Crescent, Holme Wood , Bradford, has been warned he faces a long prison sentence.
