'GLARING MISTAKE' Police thought alleged shotgun victim had ‘fallen’ for six days after deathA DETECTIVE declared the death of a shotgun murder victim was not suspicious — after deciding he’d merely “fallen” during a walk, a trial heard today. Mark Chance made the “glaring mistake” despite the bloodied body of Brian Low, 65, being riddled with 30 pellet holes. Recalling how he inspected Mr Low’s corpse in a remote lane, DC Chance, 32, said: “I could see some blood on his face and see his hands. Ms Curran said: “Their words were, ‘Brian’s dead’.”She said she asked the officers: “Is that why my granddaughter is upset? “You had no right telling her because she is 17.”Former gamekeeper Campbell denies that he murdered retired estate groundsman Mr Low.
