'You're going back to prison for a long time' - Judge tells man who took gun to Willenhall street
A man who went armed with a gun to a Willenhall street has been told to expect an extended prison sentence for his actions.
Sharif Cousins, aged 49, who has previous firearms convictions and James Gray, aged 27, were found guilty of possessing a firearm relating to the discharge of a weapon in Princethorpe Road off Bilston Lane in Willenhall on May 26 this year.
Bullets landed in a kitchen and struck a car during the incident which happened shortly before 2am resulting in the stunned householders dialling 999 after CCTV captured a man firing toward the address.
Judge Dean Kershaw said: "Cousins is facing a lengthy prison sentence which will be extended. I am ordering a report, but only to assess the matter of dangerousness.

“I’m not ordering a report for Gray at this stage. He is facing a long term, but not as long as Cousins.”
