'Deeply shocked' boss of shooting victim Barry Dawson pays tribute to grandad
The boss of shooting victim Barry Dawson has paid tribute to the Stanley grandad - saying staff are 'deeply shocked and saddened' by his death. 'Much loved' Barry was gunned down in his own home on Elm Street in South Moor earlier this month after a shot was fired through the downstairs window. The 60-year-old's death left his family 'truly devastated' - and a large-scale probe was launched by Durham Constabulary leading to five people being charged with murder. Barry worked for the Stanley plant of KP Snacks, which is known for popular crisp brands such as Skips, Space Raiders, Hula Hoops, and Pom-Bears.

He said: 'We are deeply shocked and saddened by the tragic death of our colleague, Barry Dawson. 'Barry was a highly valued member of the team at our Stanley site and our thoughts are with his family, friends, and loved ones at this incredibly difficult time. 'We've taken immediate steps to support our colleagues as they come to terms with this devastating news, including on-site presence from the leadership team and mental health first aiders, as well as ongoing access to our employee health and wellbeing team.

Heartfelt notes and flowers laid at scene as Stanley shooting probe enters third day
Heartfelt tributes and flowers have been laid at the scene of a shooting in Stanley after a man was allegedly gunned down in broad daylight. Barry Dawson was shot in his own home on Elm Street, in South Moor, at around 5.20pm on Saturday - and despite the best efforts of paramedics, he sadly died at the scene. The 60-year-old has been described as a "thoroughly decent man" - and his death has prompted an outpouring of grief from the shocked Stanley community. Flowers laid at the scene of a fatal shooting in Stanley (Image: SARAH CALDECOTT) More than a dozen bouquets of flowers have been laid against brickwork on the street, just metres from a blue and white police cordon and a CSI investigation tent. Heart-breaking notes to Barry, who worked for a crisp factory KP Snacks, say 'you will be missed' - with others adding: 'Rest easy now.' The investigation into Barry's death - whose friends today claimed is a case of mistaken identity - has now entered its third day, with crime scene investigators remaining at the scene.

Shocking footage of the alleged incident has also since been uploaded to social media, showing two figures outside a house in the street before one appears to fire a shot through the blinds. Officers are still appealing for witnesses to come forward and are particularly keen to hear from anyone who may have seen a white Seat Arona in the area around the time of the incident.
