A teenager has been found dead in the woods where his father\'s body was discovered almost six weeks ago, after shooting the boy\'s mother. The body of Jack Williams, 16, was discovered near where his father Darren died after the shooting in a Newport hair salon in August. Jack\'s mother Rachel, 39, who recently left hospital, was said to be devastated by her son\'s death. A family spokesman said Jack found it hard to come to terms with the events.

He opened fire with a double-barrelled shotgun, wounding Mrs Williams, who needed a 10-hour operation to save her left leg. Connie Evans, a 92-year-old widow, and another elderly customer were also wounded.
