Four in hospital after Brixton shooting

Four people have been taken to hospital with gunshot wounds after multiple shots were fired from a vehicle in Brixton, south London, in the early hours of Saturday.

One man, 25, is in a life-threatening condition in hospital. Three others, aged 21, 47 and 70, were also taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

Police arrived at the scene on Coldharbour Lane within minutes following reports of the shooting.

No arrests have been made, and police are continuing to investigate.

The London Ambulance Service said: "We treated four patients at the scene. We took two of them to a major trauma centre and the other two patients to a local hospital."

Det Ch Insp Allam Bhangoo, who is leading the investigation, called the incident an "act of indiscriminate violence".

"We understand how concerning this incident will be for the local community and want to reassure residents that officers are working at pace to identify those responsible," they said.

The police have asked for anyone with information about the incident to come forward - and said there will be an increased police presence in the area over the coming days.
