Police allege the man was in a group that became involved in a dispute with another group. They confronted each other at shopping centre car park in Warburton Avenue and it was during this time that the 21-year-old man was shot in the stomach. Trent Jackson, of Duncraig, has been sentenced for causing grievous bodily harm, going armed to cause fear and possessing an unlicensed firearm. The injured man was driven by a friend to Joondalup Health Campus, in Perth. The victim was in a stable condition after undergoing surgery to remove shotgun pellets from his stomach.
Comments: Social violence among the teenagers is getting worse nowadays. Teenagers are easily influence by peers and have their own peer groups. Even worse, they owned unlicensed firearm and this leads to a more serious social issue as it can kill one’s life with only one shot. Parents should guide them as well as encourage them to choose the right friends. Peer is very powerful to influence each other. Choosing the right friends will lead to the right direction in life. Hence, this needs a concern from all the members in society.
