A mother has told a jury of the terrifying moment she rushed her kids home from playing outside after she witnessed a man being fatally shot in the street
. Luke Graham was shot in the shoulder by gunman Wade Cox, who was previously found guilty, while sitting in a Volkswagen Caddy van with another man and later passed away in hospital on June 13, 2018.
Minshull Street Crown Court previously heard Haplin, 28, 'encouraged and assisted' in the murder of Luke Graham in Ashton-under-Lyne. He is accused of being one of two men with Cox at the time and is thought to have played a significant role in the shooting, including closing the door of the van to stop Mr Graham escaping and 'willingly' taking possession of the murder weapon after the attack.
When asked by the prosecution what happened next, Ms Clowes said: "My attention was drawn to a vehicle that pulled up beside the shop on Birch Street. There were three people in the car, all males. One got out of the driver's seat, the other got out of the front passenger seat and the other out the back.
She added: "The other men stayed to the left of the man who shot him. My only intention was to get my children back in the house. I was screaming and shouting at my kids to get them back in the house. It’s not something you see everyday." As he phoned him another man threatened to shoot him in the leg if he started any 'funny business' Mr Levescone told the jury. The van pulled up outside the property a few minutes later and he went upstairs as the three men went outside.
