A man has been charged with attempted murder after an eight-year-old girl and a man were shot in Ladbroke Grove.

Jazz Reid, 32, of Kensington, was charged with two counts of attempted murder and possession of a firearm and ammunition.

It follows a double shooting in Southern Row on Sunday (November 24), which left the girl and a 34-year-old man with injuries.

The girl underwent surgery on Monday and is in a stable condition, while her father has been left with potentially life-changing injuries.

Police arrested a man, 22, on Monday and he was bailed to a date in early February.

Then Reid was arrested on Tuesday on suspicion of the attempted murder of two people and possession of a firearm with intent to endanger life.

Reid will appear at Thames Magistrates’ Court today (November 29).
