(about 2 hours later) | |
A teenager has died after he was found collapsed in the street with gunshot wounds. | |
The 19-year-old was pronounced dead after emergency services were called to Bounces Road in Edmonton, north London, at about 9.45pm on Monday. | |
Alexandra Koohi, a witness, said she heard shouting and then about an hour later shots were fired. | |
She added: "I heard lots of shouting outside the kebab shop, then an hour later I was in my bedroom and I heard two shots. I looked out of my window and the guy was lying on the floor and there was blood everywhere." | |
She said the victim had been shot twice in the chest and that she and a neighbour ran to try to help him. | |
The neighbour, 21, who is Hungarian, said: "It's a shocking incident. It's scary to think this kind of thing can happen in your neighbourhood." She said she saw three men running away after the shooting. | |
Detectives from the homicide and serious crime command are investigating. Scotland Yard said a postmortem examination and formal identification would take place in due course. |
