A man has been shot dead on a residential street in central London.
The victim, aged in his 20s, was found with gunshot wounds just after 11pm on Wednesday in Bravington Road, Maida Vale.
He was declared dead at the scene about 45 minutes later.
The victim has not been named publicly but his next of kin have been informed.
Forensics officers are at the scene and the road has been closed off.
Detective Chief Inspector Wayne Jolley said: ‘The incident took place in a residential street and as a result I am sure there are people who may have captured footage on their doorbell or dash cameras that could be vitally important for us.
‘I need those people to check immediately and share any material they have with us immediately.
‘Equally if you saw or heard anything before the incident, or after it, I need you to speak to my team so that we can have the best possible chance of finding whoever responsible for this horrific crime and bringing them to justice.’
