Kieran Hayler has 'air rifle taken off him by police after firearms arrest'
Kieran Hayler has had his air rifle taken off him by Sussex Police after claims he had threatened to fire it, according to reports.
The former husband of Katie Price was arrested over the weekend on suspicion of possession of a firearm with intent to cause fear of violence and child neglect.
Kieran, 36, has since been released from police custody after being taken in for questioning at the station in Worthing, West Sussex, before celebrating Easter with his partner Michelle Penticost and a group of friends.
But sources now suggest that his air rifle was seized by police while he continued to assist them.
A source said: "Kieran's air rifle was taken as is standard procedure in an investigation like this."
