Teens held over school ‘gun’

JAMIE Oliver has sparked fresh fury after trying to defend his £5million food-to-go deal with Shell.

The TV chef, 43, yesterday launched his range of wraps sandwiches and salads for the oil giant, despite campaigning for action on climate change. He said he had “thought a lot” before agreeing to it, adding: “There are pitfalls working for any client, they all have their own baggage.”

But campaigners hit out at his reasoning, which comes after Jamie told of a cash crisis at his company.

Shell, whose profits hit £4.3billion last year, is in the top 10 global carbon dioxide emitters. It is also involved in a corruption trial over dealings in Nigeria. TV naturalist Chris Packham said: “Until big petrochemical THREE teenagers were arrested after an imitation handgun was allegedly taken into a school.

Two youths of 15 and one of 16 were held after staff at the school called police.

Officers warned they had risked “being seriously hurt” if a firearms team had been called out as, at a distance, it was impossible to tell the gun from a real one.

It is not known if the three were pupils at the school in Redcar, North Yorks, which is not being named. They were released under investigation.

Cleveland Police said: “Those caught with an imitation firearm cause extreme fear and will face the full force of the law.”
