A wannabe gangster who boasted about guns, gangs and violence in a “chilling” Internet video has been locked-up for eight years after a police raid on his house.
Ryan Agostini, 23, (pic.top) of Calshot Street, Islington, North London was not home during the early hours search on October 9, last year when officers found a sawn-off shotgun and ammo (pic.bottom).
Blackfriars Crown Court heard Agostini gave himself up at Islington Police Station the next week.
Police obtained the search warrant after discovering the video, which the Judge described as “chilling.”
“I am pleased that Agostini has received a lengthy sentence which sends a clear message to people involved in gun crime that the Criminal Justice System will not tolerate this,” said Detective Sergeant Derek Wright.
“Islington Police officers are committed to disrupting gangs and taking guns and other dangerous weapons off of our streets.”
Agostini received six years for possessing the shotgun and twenty-nine rounds of ammunition plus two years for possessing forty-six rounds of expanding ammunition.
