A furious Ayrshire mum shot two kids with a BB gun after they 'bullied her daughter'.
Anne Carson, from Auchinleck, fired the weapon at the teens and clipped them on the arm and leg.
The Scottish Sun reports cops swooped to Carson's home where they found an airgun that shoots plastic bullets.

The same newspaper reports that Ayr Sheriff Court heard how Anne felt "nothing was being done" to help her children who were allegedly being picked on and abused at their school.
After Carson admitted the May 2018 shooting, Sheriff Desmond Leslie told her: “If you arm yourself with a weapon and fire projectiles at children, there needs to be significant consequences."
She was spared jail but ordered to complete 200 hours of unpaid work.
