…the lady who was killed and the other two victims were all mourners who were attending a church wake…
Harlesden murder victim was 'mourner gunned down in drive-by shooting outside church wake'… The victims of a drive-by shooting which left a woman dead outside a North West London church were mourners attending a wake, according to the head of the church. Met Police officers were called at around 9.15pm on Saturday night to Gifford Road, between Harlesden and Willesden, 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 force said. Forensics combed the area for crime scenes late on Saturday, and a cordon was in place at the junction of Gifford Road and Creukhorne Road on Sunday morning with several officers posted at the scene. Pastor Lawrence Larbie, from the River of Life Elim Pentecostal Church, said there was a wake going on inside the church that was due to end just before 10pm. But at around quarter past nine, he said people began running into the building saying 'there's been a shooting, there's been a shooting'. "It turns out three people have been hit by a drive-by shooting," Pastor Lawrence told MyLondon, "The whole place was surrounded by police. One person shot in the back, we heard. People tended to them before the ambulance arrived. The car just drove through. The victims were people attending the wake. They were probably on their way home. "It's shocking. We are really devastated. You are invited to attend the wake and you end up deceased. You're killed. You're gone. You're life is expired just like that. It was pandemonium in the building. They came with very deadly, evil intentions to cause death. "We are just praying for peace on our streets, and people should not be afraid. We pray they will apprehend them." MyLondon has contacted the Met Police in relation to Pastor Lawrence's comments on the attack being a drive-by shooting targeting people attending a wake. A police spokesperson said they could not go into 'any further detail' at this time as the investigation continues. One resident told PA News Agency people were 'crying and screaming' as they exited the church to the sight of bodies on the ground. Another witness claimed they heard five gunshots in quick succession. One witness, who was inside the church, described a similar scene to Pastor Lawrence, also calling it 'pandemonium'. 'Heinous act of violence' 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. “I want to reassure people that a team of experienced detectives are already working at pace to piece together the events of last night and identify whoever was responsible for this heinous act of violence. “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.” |

Sportsmen, even those of olympic standard, aren't allowed registered firearms anymore. Has that stopped the criminals and the gang bangers? No, gun violence is one of the country's few growth areas.

It definitely appears to be more commonplace than it used to be.

Teenager arrested on suspicion of murder after shooting outside northwest London church following wake…
An 18-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of murder after the death of a woman outside a northwest London church following a wake. He was arrested on Wednesday and remains in custody, the Met Police said. An investigation was launched after police were called to reports of a shooting in Gifford Road, Brent, where Michelle Sadio and others were standing outside a church following a wake, around 9.15pm on 14 December. Ms Sadio, aged 44, was found suffering serious injuries and despite the efforts of the emergency services she was pronounced dead at the scene, officers said. Police said two men, both aged in their 30s, also suffered injuries. One remains in hospital in a critical but stable condition; the other man has been discharged following treatment. Detective Chief Inspector Phil Clarke, leading the investigation, said: "While this arrest marks a significant step forward in this investigation we continue to appeal for anyone with information about Michelle's murder to come forward and speak to us. "This was senseless act of violence that resulted in an innocent woman being killed. Michelle's family continue to grieve and we are determined to ensure those responsible face the consequences of their actions." He called on anyone who could assist with their inquiry to come forward. Police said the shots were fired from a black Kia Niro with distinctive alloys and the number plate LA23 XRE. After the shooting, the vehicle was driven to Barnhill Road where it was abandoned and set alight. |

Hopefully this is the start of finally solving who was involved.

Maybe its time we armed all our police people … at least we’d be getting rid of the occasional baddie once in a while as opposed to the current state of affairs where they may arrest them but they get a suspended sentence
