Suspects fired shotgun at Euston funeral mourners from moving car

I hope everyone who's been injured makes a good recovery and that the gunman gets caught soon.

day light gun shooting in Central London ain't good is it.

Getting like Liverpool. Filth will come down hard as fuck, but that won't stop the next dickhead who feels that this is acceptable behaviour

Absolute wanker behind this. Following the two idiots fighting with machetes at gallows corner, and predictably causing life-changing injuries, it has been a shit couple of days in terms of pointless violence.

22 year old man arrested.
Do we really think he was targeting someone at this funeral? It's all a bit Godfather.

Just realised i walk passed this place almost every week. It’s literally next door to a school.

I'm originally from the Midlands so the area's like my London gateway. I eat at the chippy there a lot and Saturday could have been one of those days.

They'll say it was a case of "mistaken identity" as if that's supposed to make us feel better about it. Precious little consolation for the victims whose identities were "mistaken". This should be treated as a terror incident.

Not really.

They're saying it might be linked to a "Colombian drug cartel" but if they've got the right man, then fuck him. Shooting a 7 yr old girl. Cowardly piece of shit.

Ms Calderon’s former husband, Carloz Arturo Sanchez-Coronado, was jailed in 2009 at Southwark crown court after being extradited here for laundering cash as a “money deliverer” for a London drugs gang connected to Colombia’s infamous Cali cartel.

He was sentenced to five and a half years, with other members of the gang also jailed, and although he returned to Colombia after his release there was speculation on Monday that the shooting could have been carried out as a reprisal directed at someone attending the service.

Sorry if off topic but each of these incidents are linked however obliquely to drugs and the war on drugs. These people are victims of the war on drugs and the governments attitude to it.

Not sure I'd describe the drug gangs as victims.

Off topic and stupid. Dealers aren't compelled by the 'war on drugs' to gun innocent people down at a funeral.

I feel it's true to say that most of the problems caused by 'drugs' is their prohibition.

When alcohol was prohibited in the US there were gangsters shooting each other.
