Video of suspect sought released approaching a year on from shooting in Brixton

Almost a year on from a shooting in Brixton, detectives have released newly obtained images and video of a male they want to speak to.

Police were called by the London Ambulance Service at 18:37hrs on Tuesday, 10 October 2023 to Deepdene Gardens SW2, following reports of a shooting.

Officers responded and found a man with a gunshot injury to his leg.

His condition was assessed in hospital as not life-threatening.

Since then specialist detectives have carried out a wealth of enquiries.

Detective Sergeant Matt Doohan said: "Though we have arrested and charged a person in connection with this incident, we are still very interested in speaking to the male pictured.

"This is relatively new footage that we have obtained that shows the suspect entering a shop near Gaitskell Court SW11, around four miles away, in the hours before the incident.

"The footage is good quality and I believe it's possible that someone will recognise him. From our enquiries so far we think he is probably from outside the local area, potentially from another London borough or perhaps further afield.

"If you can name him, I urge you to contact us immediately."
