Man shot dead in suspected gang attack outside pub in London's desirable Clapham area

A man was shot dead in a suspected gang attack outside a London pub last night.

Emergency services raced to The Landor pub in Clapham at around 10pm after the victim, believed to be a 25-year-old man, was fatally wounded.

Witnesses describe hearing three gunshots outside the pub while terrified residents said they heard loud 'bangs'.

One resident told London Now: 'It was shortly after 10pm and I heard lots of sirens, and I heard bangs - I think it was five or something.

'And then I said "do you think they were gunshots?"'

Another resident said she now wants to move out of London, fearing for the safety of  her two-year-old grandson growing up in the city.

She said the sirens eventually quietened down but was 'horrified' by what she had heard. 

Landor Road has been closed and cordoned off while forensics teams investigate this morning. 

Clapham, an affluent south-west London suburb which is home to wealthy residents and young professionals, has been rocked by violence in recent years.
