Mum confronts police at firing range after discovering they didn't have planning permission

This is the moment a mum confronts armed police on a firing range next to her home - which the family discovered didn't even have planning permission.

Corin Hancock, 34, was able to wander up to cops wielding massive guns - demanding they stop.

Corin, 34, and hubbie Rob Chislett, 48, are in the middle of Britain's most explosive neighbour dispute - with local armed officers.

Rob and Corin say their children are afraid to go outside as cops fired high-calibre guns up to four times a week - without a permit.

They say Devon & Cornwall Police have used the neighbouring pond ground quarry near Holcombe Rogus, Devon, for eight years without permission.

In recent years he says the gunfire has become far worse, going from the occasional pistol shots to machinegun-like fire - and leaving his kids scared to go outside.

Video recordings of Mr Chislett's garden show loud gunfire sounds in the distance.

Last week, Devon & Cornwall Police have since submitted a new application to fire weapons all day, five days a week.

In the application they admitted that they had been using the site since 2014 without a permit which they blamed on 'reasons unknown'.

A separate application to build on the site though shows that Mid Devon District Council reminded them to apply that year.

The fresh application also requested permission to fire on weekends and higher calibre weapons than before - infuriating locals who say they feel like they are in Ukraine.

Villagers are also unable to complain to their local MP Neil Parish after he resigned from the commons after being caught watching porn in the chamber.

Rob, who lives close by pond ground quarry, says the site has been used by police for 40 years - but since the start of the pandemic had started to be used more frequently.
