A Shooting in the Gun-Controlled UK

How can this be? There is so much gun control in the UK, and yet it isn't safe. Attempted murder arrest after teenage boy shot

The 16-year-old was found injured on London Road, Sheffield, at about 17:15 GMT on Monday and was taken to hospital.

South Yorkshire Police said a 26-year-old man had been arrested by Police Scotland in Aberdeen on Saturday night, along with a 23-year-old woman, who was being held on suspicion of assisting an offender.

Other people, juveniles, mostly, have been arrested; click thru for the details.

"This incident understandably caused a lot of concern and heartache in the local communities and our thoughts remain with the child's family," [Detective Chief Inspector Emma Knight, from South Yorkshire Police] said.

Sheffield, UK is about a 60 kilomter drive east of Manchester, or about a 260 kilometer drive north of London. South Yorkshire is one of 48 counties in the England.

So all the gun control, knife control, and soon to be blunt-object control, has not made the United Kingdom crime free. I'm shocked. Or maybe not. And while crime like this is going on the police are busy arresting people for songs, posts on social media, and other thought crimes. More like Airstrip One every day.
