Shocking, the Swan in Stockwell was an old haunt of me and Mr C

To think a young kid was shot dead yards away just doesn't seem like the London I knew

[Ammi]

…that sort of connection makes you feel quite shaky Cherie ….it feels as though gun crime is on a steady increase in the UK over the last while…very sad…

[A 16-year-old boy who died after being shot
in south London has been named by
the Metropolitan Police as Lathaniel Burrell.
An eyewitness to the killing in Stockwell told
the BBC the teenager was shot dead
by a man dressed as a
food delivery driver on a moped.

Lathaniel - who locals have said was
a "very bright" school pupil - died on
Paradise Road, near Stockwell Tube station,
at about 14:30 GMT on Tuesday.
The Met Police has called it an
"enormously shocking incident".
The eyewitness said two boys came down
the stairs at a block of flats when the
moped rider took out a gun and fired,
adding that the teenager who died
was well known in the area
and was involved in gangs.
Police said inquiries were still ongoing,
no arrests have been made,
and detectives are keeping an open
mind about the possible motive
for the attack.

shocked by the killing.]
