At 02:19 on Thursday, police were called to investigate reports of shots being fired on Linden Road, Hampton.

Officers arrived at Tilson Gardens where there were no suspects or injured persons on the scene.

An investigation has been opened, with police calling for anyone with information to come forward by either calling 101 with the reference CAD 8276/30 OCT, or, for those wishing to remain anonymous, by calling the charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 or visiting their website crimestoppers-uk.org.

Under four hours later, at 02:19 on Thursday, Hampton police officers attended the scene where damage to a vehicle and residential property has been found.  Again, no suspects or victims have been found at the scene.

They are currently appealing for information to help with the ongoing investigation.

They are asking for anyone who knows of anything related to the events to call the number 101 with the reference CAD 606/31OCT. Again, alternatively, you can call the charity “Crimestoppers” on 0800 555 111, or by visiting their website.

Hampton Site of Shooting 

Activist Lorraine Jones Burrell took to X as she walked past the taped-off site in Brixton, appealing to the council and Downing Street to make the streets safer.

She spoke of how she walked through the area to “reassure the locals,” who have grown increasingly wary of letting their children out. She ends her post with the words “this needs to stop.” She refers to the interview as “another shooting,” pointing to the fact that gun violence has been an all too prevalent item in our news feeds.

Both investigations are still ongoing.
