Further charges after shooting at funeral

Police have laid further charges after two people shot into a crowd that had gathered for a funeral in a West Australian town.

A long-running feud between two Aboriginal families escalated after members gathered following the funeral of an elder in the wheatbelt town of Narrogin, about 200 kilometres southeast of Perth, on November 14.
  
Police allege a brawl involving about 100 people intensified when a husband and wife allegedly fired into the crowd that night, injuring two people from the opposing family.
  
Police on Saturday said it would also be alleged that one of the offenders also aimed and fired directly at the driver of a car attempting to take one of the injured to hospital.
  
The husband and wife, a 55-year-old man and a 54-year-old woman from Pinjarra in WA's Peel region, were charged on the night with discharging a firearm with intent to cause fear.
  
The husband has now also been charged with three counts of acts intended to cause grievous bodily harm, possessing a weapon, inadequate storage of a firearm and carrying a firearm while intoxicated.

Police on Saturday also said a 30-year-old man from Narrogin had been charged with breaching a misconduct restraining order.
  
A 48-year-old man from Narrogin, a member of the opposing family, has been charged with inadequate storage of ammunition.
  
The two people injured in the incident have since been discharged from hospital and are in a satisfactory condition, police said.
