Fury star jailed for owning illegal weapon

A scene from the movie Fury.

Military expert Kevin Burgon, who played a tank driver in Brad Pitt's war movie Fury, has been jailed for owning an illegal gun.

Burgon, who also appeared as an extra in 2007 movie Atonement, is a registered firearms owner in the UK but was arrested after weapons inspectors discovered he had a banned World War Two pistol in his collection.

He pleaded guilty to possessing a prohibited firearm and ammunition without a certificate and was sentenced to three years and four months prison by a judge at Teesside Crown Court, England this week.
