Aubrey Green aged 14 lies in serious condition at Dubbo District Hospital after a shooting incident on Wednesday afternoon. William Lloyd and Charlie Ferris joined Green in a reckless plan to shoot a pencil and then the top hat on Green’s head, five hundred yards from the river, resulting in a 22 calibre bullet entering Green’s head. Ferris refused to shoot but Green fired, hitting himself and sustaining a skull fracture.
