5 people shot dead

Hundreds have attended the funeral of a 3 year old Sophie, and her father, Lee who were killed in a shooting in Plymouth last month.

Sophie and Lee Martyn were among 5 people, were shot dead by Jake Davison in the Keyham area of the city.

The victims included Davison's 51 year-old mother, Maxine, Stephen Washington, 59 & 66 year-old Kate Shepard, who died in hospital.

A 33 year-old woman & 53 year-old man were also injured in the shooting, before Mr. Davison turned the gun on himself.

Questions remain over why Mr. Davison held a shotgun licence - the weapon was removed from him last year over an allegation of assault.

An inquest heard how the 22-year-old had a row with his mother, before carrying out his 12-minute rampage.

3 separate inquiries looking into the incident are underway.
