Thelma & Louise Rabbit Hunters Shoot Up Ravers

A 46 year old gamekeeper and her female assistant who terrorised partygoers with shotguns at an illegal all night rave, pleaded guilty to charges of possessing a firearm with intent to cause fear of violence this week, at Guildford Crown Court, England.

Jessica Allinson and her 28 year old assistant Alexander Szyndel reportedly shot out tyres of ravers' cars, blasted speakers and man-handled the party organisers, after confronting the 600 revellers in a dawn showdown.

The woodland party had reportedly been pumping out music since midnight prompting "scores of complaints from neighbours as far as seven miles away', The Telegraph revealed. Ms Szyndel told police they'd been hunting rabbits before encountering the ravers, who she said told them to "fuck off' when the pair asked them to leave, prompting their excessive reactions.

Way Out West's Nick Warren, who during the mid 80s worked as a gamekeeper, routinely carrying (and using) a shotgun, was sympathetic.

"It does upset people when a bunch of pilled up nutters invade their privacy and driving cars through the woods would make any gamekeeper a little upset to say the least," Nick told Skrufff. "Thankfully I finished gamekeeping long before rave culture exploded, although I did tell a few townies to "get orf my land'," he admitted.

"Country people are getting a right old pounding at the moment so I must say that most of them are fine people," Nick added. "As long as you respect them as much as you wish to be respected."

Both gun-toting ladies await sentencing.
