Another shooting in the Old Kent Road

Police were called soon after 3am on Sunday 16 September to reports of shots fired near Tesco in the Old Kent Road.

Officers and and ambulance crews attended and a 20-year-old male was taken to a south London hospital for treatment to a gunshot wound to the foot.

The victim was arrested in connection with the inquiry after he was discharged from hospital and remains in custody.

A police spokesman says that officers believe that a fight occurred in Club J (formerly Steffanys) that spilled out into street where a number of shots were fired.

A number of males then made off from the scene on foot. Subsequently a blue car was seen speeding off from the area. It then hit a lamppost and overturned. Three males then made off from the collision.
