Head shot of Andrew Feinberg

A MAN with a shotgun who spent more than six hours under police siege in a house in Foxton, Cambridgeshire, gave himself up after prolonged negotiations yesterday.

The gunman, said to be in his thirties, terrified villagers earlier in the day by walking round firing shots into the air after being involved in a domestic dispute. Police sealed off the village and cornered the man, who has yet to be identified.
