A woman who died following a triple shooting has been named as 46-year-old Michelle Sadio.
Two men in their 30s were also injured during the incident in Gifford Road, Brent, in north-west London on Saturday. One remains in hospital in a critical condition.
There have been no arrests and an investigation into the shooting continues, the Metropolitan Police force said.
Superintendent Tony Josephs, from the North West Command Unit which covers Brent, said: “This is a truly shocking incident that has left a woman dead and two others injured, and I understand the concern this will cause the local community and those across London.
“I want to reassure people that a team of experienced detectives are already working at pace to piece together the events of last night and identify whoever was responsible for this heinous act of violence.”
It comes after reports that the three victims were mourners who were shot in a drive-by attack after attending a wake. Pastor Lawrence Larbie, from the Elim River of Life Pentecostal Church, said a wake had been due to end just before 10pm.
He told MyLondon: “The whole place was surrounded by police. One person was shot in the back, we heard. People tended to them before the ambulance arrived. The car just drove through. The victims were people attending the wake. They were probably on their way home.
“It was pandemonium in the building. They came with very deadly, evil intentions to cause death.”
