The Met Police have reported that a shooting has left a male and an eight-year-old daughter with critical injuries.

After the shooting on Sunday at around 17:30 GMT on Southern Row in Ladbroke Grove, the two were rushed to the hospital.

The girl is in a stable condition with non life-threatening injuries. The condition of the man, 34, is unknown, while a 32-year-old woman was also taken to hospital as a precaution.

Appealing for witnesses, Supt Owen Renowden described it as "an appalling incident".

The London Ambulance Service said it arrived within six minutes and treated two patients at the scene "before taking them to a major trauma centre as a priority".

No arrests have been made and inquiries are ongoing, Scotland Yard said.

Supt Renowden said detectives wanted to hear from anyone with information about what happened, "no matter how insignificant".

In August, 15-year-old Rene Graham was shot dead two streets away during a pre-carnival event.
