Man

Age: 20s

Sex: male

Date: 28 May 2021

Place: Turnpike Lane Tube Station, Hornsey

A man was shot outside Turnpike Lane Tube station in Hornsey on 28 May 2021.

The police were called out at about 1.10am on 28 May 2021, but the man died at the scene at 1.55am.

His name was not released, but the police said his next of kin had been informed.

He was found collapsed behind a bus shelter by the junction of Turnpike Lane and Willoughby Road.

A witness said:

I heard at least three shots, ‘pop, pop, pop’. Then the guy staggered holding his side and collapsed. His friends had run away but then came back to help him. I didn’t see a shooter. Paramedics came and were trying to save him. His mum came to the scene. She was wailing, it was horrific.

It was reported that the police cordoned off the area in order to carry out a forensic examination, during which they found bullet casings, and that they were also looking for CCTV footage from local shops and buildings in the area. The police also looked down drains and took photographs.

Nothing more is known.
