A man was shot dead outside a London pub in a suspected gang attack in front of horrified bystanders.
The victim of the attack in the Clapham area, home to many wealthy residents and young professionals, is believed to be a 25-year-old man.
Police and paramedics were seen outside the Landor Pub on Monday night.
The street has been closed and cordoned off while forensics teams investigate this morning.
Witnesses heard three gunshots from outside the pub while terrified residents reported hearing ‘bangs’ at around 10pm last night.
One resident told London Now: ‘It was shortly after 10pm and I heard lots of sirens, and I heard bangs – I think it was five or something.
‘And then I said “do you think they were gunshots?”‘
Another resident said she now wants to move out of London, fearing for the safety of her two-year-old grandson growing up in the city.
She said the sirens eventually quietened down but said she was ‘horrified’ by what she had heard.
