A nine-year-old girl is fighting for her life in critical condition after being shot in a drive-by attack in Hackney on May 29. The young girl was having dinner with her family at a restaurant on Kingsland High Street in Dalston when the incident occurred, leaving her and three men injured by gunfire.
The attack, described as random, unfolded around 9:20 PM, prompting a swift response from armed Metropolitan Police officers and paramedics. The three men, aged 44, 42, and 37, sustained gunshot wounds and were rushed to the hospital. While the men are believed to be in stable condition, one may be facing life-altering injuries. The 37-year-old has since been discharged from the hospital.
