Three teenagers injured in shooting at Broadwater Farm estate in Tottenham

A 19-year-old man was left in a critical condition and two 15-year-old boys were seriously injured in a shooting in north London.

Scotland Yard said the gunmen are believed to have arrived at the scene in the Broadwater Farm estate, in Tottenham, in a car before fleeing in the same vehicle.

Police, including armed officers, were called to Rochford car park, in Willan Road, shortly before 12.45am on Thursday.

The three victims were found with gunshot wounds nearby and taken to hospital, where the 19-year-old man is in a critical condition.

One of the 15-year-old boys’ injuries are said to be potentially life-changing. No arrests have been made and detectives are appealing for information.

Commander Paul Brogden added: “This was another appalling crime, where three young black males have become victims in our capital city, two of whom are actually children.

“The Metropolitan Police will leave no stone unturned to bring to justice those responsible, but we need the help of Londoners to break this cycle of violence.”
