I'm deeply saddened to report on a terrible event that occurred in Walthamstow on Saturday night. A 22-year-old man is fighting for his life after being shot at a crowded venue located on Blackhorse Lane.
Multiple witnesses reported that a firearm had been discharged, and the victim was rushed to the hospital to be treated by medical professionals. As of now, no arrests have been made.
Labour & Co-op MP for Walthamstow Stella Creasey sent out a tweet regarding the incident: "Am sorry to report formally that there has been another serious violence incident in Walthamstow. As soon as I have further information on both the incident and the disruption I will update residents again, but can see there’s been discussion about what may or may not have happened so wanted to provide formal details. If you have information please do come forward to help find those responsible."
The Metropolitan Police have released a statement in response to this event. They have asked anyone with information or footage that may assist the investigation to call 101 or contact Crimestoppers. Additionally, they have authorised a Section 60 to help officers keep people in Walthamstow safe and have additional officers on the scene.
This event is a tragic reminder of the violence occurring in London and the urgency of finding the perpetrator. My thoughts are with the victim and their family during this time.
