The man accused of opening fire outside Somerset Cricket Club injuring four men has been cleared of all charges.

It took a jury just 50 minutes this afternoon to find Princeton Shantoine Burrows not guilty of shooting at the men with intent to cause grievous bodily harm, along with charges of possessing a firearm and five rounds of .40 calibre ammunition in connection to the attack.

The 24-year-old had always denied the charges, but chose not to take the stand during his trial.

Prosecutors had alleged that Mr Burrows opened fire at a group of men sat outside the cricket club on November 11, 2014 injuring four men.
