Initial enquiries suggest the suspects responsible for the shooting were masked and travelling on E-Bikes.
Detective Inspector Mat Freeman, from the Met’s Specialist Crime, said: “We know that when this incident happened there were members of public and vehicles driving nearby.
“Officers are keen to speak to anyone who witnessed the incident or who saw or heard anything suspicious at around that time. Also, if you were driving in the area, did you record something on dash cam?
“Any piece of information, no matter how irrelevant it may seem, could be crucial in piecing together what took place.”
