Watch: CCTV footage shows moments leading up to murder of Connor Brookes

In the video, the vehicle was seen moving through the streets of Walsall towards Well Lane, just before 5pm on July 8, 2024. 

Connor and a friend were sat in a parked van when their attackers pulled up alongside them in the stolen black Ford Focus. 

Six seconds later, a gunman in the back of the car fired a shotgun once at them. 

Connor, who was in the driver’s seat, was killed, while his friend in the passenger seat was hit in the left shoulder but survived.

Byron Sellick, 20, Jake Sanbrook, aged 23, and Julian Falconer, 20, were all in the Ford Focus when the drive-by shooting happened.

Sellick, Sanbrook and Falconer were found guilty of murder, attempted murder and possession of a firearm. 

Samuel Danks-Petty, 20, of Buildwas Close, Mossley, was found guilty of intent to pervert the course of justice after helping organise and cover up the murder. 

During the trial the court heard Connor Brookes was shot in retaliation for the death of Bailey Atkinson who was murdered in Walsall town centre. One of the men guilty of Bailey's murder was Connor's brother Patrick. 

Falconer, of Wyrley Close, New Invention, Willenhall; Sanbrook, of Fisher Road, Mossley, Bloxwich and Sellick, of no fixed abode, and Danks-Petty will be sentenced on May 30.

Justice Michael Chambers KC remanded the defendants in custody and told them to expect a lengthy prison term.
