£20,000 reward offered in drive-by shooting appeal

A £20,000 reward has been offered for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of the killers involved in a drive-by shooting in south London.

Keanu Taylor, 25, was shot at a large social gathering on Coldharbour Lane in Brixton in the early hours of 2 May. He died in hospital two days later.

Three others, aged 21, 47 and 70, were taken to hospital with not life‑threatening or life‑changing injuries. No arrests have been made.

Alexa Loukas, from Crimestoppers, said: "We are offering this reward because we believe there are people who have vital information, people who want to do the right thing for their community, but don't want to speak to the police."

Loukas said anonymous reports made to the charity could be the "missing piece that helps bring those responsible to justice".

Det Ch Insp Allam Bhangoo, who is leading the investigation, said the "indiscriminate attack" could easily have resulted in several fatalities.

"The people who killed Keanu are dangerous criminals – it is imperative for the safety of our community that they are taken off the streets," he said.

"We know that lots of people were in the area and if you have any information or footage that could help our investigation, it is extremely important that you come forward and talk to us."
