A gunman who shot dead a notorious 'Mr Big' before killing a gangland enforcer from Liverpool has been found guilty of another criminal underworld attack.
Mark Fellows, nicknamed the 'Iceman', gunned down Salford's Paul Massey before shooting his underworld 'fixer' associate John Kinsella.
Fellows was today convicted of playing a role in another attack following a trial at Manchester Crown Court, the Manchester Evening News reports.
The 40-year-old, alongside Jamie Rothwell, Liam Gee, Aaron Parkin and Warren Barnes, was accused of being involved in a series of incidents during a "year of mayhem" in Salford.
This afternoon the jury returned verdicts which acquitted Rothwell, Gee and Barnes.
But Fellows was convicted for conspiracy to cause grievous bodily harm with intent.
Parkin had already admitted the same offence in relation to two attacks.
Both will be sentenced tomorrow.

Over the course of the trial, jurors were told a "deadly war" broke out between the A Team gang and their rival faction, the Anti A Team.
Shots were fired at a Mercedes being driven by Abdul Rahman Khan, a "close associate" of Massey, in February 2015.
He was able to drive away and told hospital staff he had suffered a DIY accident.

Fellows, 33-year-old Rothwell and Gee, 31 and of Church Drive, Prestwich, were all found not guilty of conspiracy to murder and conspiracy to cause grievous bodily harm with intent.
A few weeks later another associate of the A Team was attacked.
