How the gun flung after Baird shooting
M
By Millie Roberts
Lamarre-Condon is being asked about his evidence last week, in relation to his struggle with Baird.
The floor plan of the kitchen and lounge room is on the screen.
He says the gun went "backwards" in the "vicinity of the living room".
"Jesse must have gone back over the box, fallen back to his right and you must have gone with him," Hatfield says, saying the door to the living room would be to the left.
"No, it would have been to the right," he replies.
Lamarre-Condon says if the gun was yanked left or right, it would have flung towards the living room.
The prosecutor suggests it would have gone behind him or to the ceiling instead.

Hatfield has asked the accused what Baird and Davies were wearing when he came across them in the home.
He says both men were in their underwear and neither were wearing shoes.
Hatfield has given Lamarre-Condon a copy of a computer-assisted floor plan of the Brown Street terrace and asked him to mark various items on the document.
He’s marked where he says there were cardboard storage boxes in the hallway and kitchen, where he later saw a mattress in the courtyard, and the location of a mobile phone which he says he picked up after Baird was shot to call emergency services.

Lamarre-Condon has been shown a photograph of the kitchen and been asked to point out where he was pinned against a wall.
He describes it as an area in the right corner, where the wall and the kitchen counter meet.
Jesse Baird 'lunged' at Lamarre-Condon

Lamarre-Condon has been asked by Crown Prosecutor Brett Hatfield SC to demonstrate the movements involved in a struggle he says he had with Baird in the kitchen of the Brown Street terrace.
He has previously testified that he was wearing a helmet at this point, and that Baird was holding a knife, “lunged” at him, and then at one point the knife was close to Lamarre-Condon’s throat before he pushed Baird back and fired a shot at Baird's shoulder.
“This was really, really quick and we were moving,” the accused says of the struggle.
“There was movement, constant movement in this struggle.”
Hatfield has asked whether this evidence was different to something he said last week — that he was “pinned” during the struggle.
Lamarre-Condon insists it’s not different, and at one point he was pinned near a wall.
Who will we be hearing from today?

This is the third day Lamarre-Condon has been in the witness box.
Last week, he was questioned by his defence barrister John Stratton SC.
Afterwards, the Crown began their cross-examination for a short period before court adjourned on Friday.
Crown prosecutor Brett Hatfield SC is expected to pick up his questioning of the accused in the NSW Supreme Court today.

We are back into cross examination, with Beau Lamarre-Condon being asked to revisit the moment he shot Jesse Baird the first time in the Paddington share house.
“This was very, very quick … I was aiming towards his right shoulder,” he said.
He gestured pulling his pistol from around his belt area, lifting it up to chest or shoulder height.
There were some technical difficulties after this point.
We're picking things up from here on out, and will loop back with what you missed shortly.
