Teenager allegedly kills woman, shoots two others 

CITIZENS COMPASSA 16 years old boy has been charged to court for allegedly killing Lianne Gordon, who was shot dead in Hackney, East London, on Tuesday evening.

The suspect was detained in the early hours of Friday and had remained in custody to appear at Barkingside magistrates court on Monday.

The boy has also been charged with the attempted murder of a 20-year-old man and a 16-year-old boy, the Metropolitan Police said.

He was further charged with possession of a firearm with intent to endanger life and with possession with intent to supply Class A drugs (crack cocaine and heroin).

The three people shot were believed to have known one another but were not related, the Met added.

Detectives say the woman who died and the two wounded males were found outside a property in Vine Close, and believe that is where the shooting took place.

It is understood that other people besides the three victims were at the property at the time of the shooting.

He will appear in custody at Barkingside Magistrates’ Court on Monday.

Ms Gordon died following a shooting outside an address in Vine Close, E5. Officers attended along with paramedics from the London Ambulance Service.
