Default Sussex Teenager Dies in Shotgun Accident

A teenager from East Sussex has died after he was accidentally shot in the head by a friend while out shooting.


Student Alex Bailey, 18, from Kingston, was hit while hunting pigeons with two friends on farmland in Southease.

His parents, Andrew and Sandra, said shooting was one of his big interests, and the trio were all experienced huntsmen with current shotgun licences.

Sussex Police said his death was not being treated as suspicious. An inquest is due to be held at a future date.

The group had been aiming at birds from a hide when Mr Bailey was shot.
