An eight-year-old girl and a man have been seriously injured in a shooting, the Met Police has said.
The pair were taken to hospital following the shooting on Southern Row in Ladbroke Grove at about 17:30 GMT on Sunday.
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.
