A woman has died and a man remains in a critical condition following a shooting in north-west London.
Police were called at around 9.15pm on Saturday night to Gifford Road, Brent, where a woman, believed to be in her 40s, was pronounced dead at the scene.
Two men, both in their 30s were also injured. One is in hospital in a critical condition while the second man’s injuries are non-life threatening, the Metropolitan Police said.
A neighbour, who asked not to be named, said they heard five gun shots in quick succession on Saturday night.
Superintendent Tony Josephs, from the North West Command Unit which covers Brent, said: “This is a truly shocking incident and I understand the concern this will cause the local community and those across London.
“If you were in or around Gifford Close at the time of the shooting, or have any information about who was responsible, please get in contact with us. A family has been left devastated and we need to work together to provide them with answers.”
No arrests have been made and inquiries continue.
