Gunman reportedly told a witness ‘nothing to worry about mate’ as he quietly went about his killing spree
He did not hurry and, according to witnesses, hardly spoke except perhaps to tell one local: “Nothing to worry about, mate.” Yet within the space of 12 minutes on a warm August evening, the 22-year-old Jake Davison had murdered five people.
The first was his 51-year-old mother, Maxine Davison. He shot her dead in the home he had shared with her in the suburbs of Plymouth. He then walked out of the front door on to the quiet cul-de-sac, Biddick Drive, and began opening fire, apparently at random.
