NRL star Josh Addo-Carr avoids conviction after unauthorised firearm use during NSW camping trip
NRL star Josh Addo-Carr has avoided a conviction being recorded after admitting to the unauthorised use of a firearm during a camping trip to the New South Wales Mid North Coast almost a year ago.
He has been sentenced to a 12-month conditional release order.
The 25-year-old was one of a group of men who visited South Sydney player and co-accused Latrell Mitchell’s property at Caffreys Flat, north-west of Taree, in late April.
Footage of him firing a shotgun was posted to social media.
In sentencing, Magistrate Allison Hawkins accepted Addo-Carr was not aware his actions were illegal.
More to come.
