A 14-year-old boy shot dead in south-east London has been named as Eghosa Ogbebor.
Two boys, aged 14 and 16, and an 18-year-old man have been arrested on suspicion of murder after the shooting on Lord Warwick Street, Woolwich, at about 3.40pm on Thursday, the Metropolitan Police said.
Detective Chief Inspector Lucie Card said: “Our thoughts remain with Eghosa’s family and loved ones, they are being supported by specially trained officers and have asked for privacy at this difficult time.
“I know the concern this has caused within Woolwich and the wider community, particularly considering Eghosa’s young age.
“We have an increased police presence around the area.
“While we have made three arrests, our investigation continues and I would urge anyone with any information to come forward and speak to officers.”
