A man shot dead in the early hours of Saturday morning in south London has been named as Jazmel Dashourn Patterson-Low.

‘A dispute appears to have flared up rapidly after 2am, resulting in shots being fired.

‘I am extremely grateful to those who have already come forward to provide information.

‘Along with CCTV and forensic inquiries, this has provided numerous lines of inquiry, which detectives are working around the clock to develop.

‘I am certain there are other people who will know what happened in St Rule Street and who was responsible for the shooting. I urge them to come forward and share that information.

‘If you don’t want to speak to police, you can contact the independent charity Crimestoppers anonymously. Some people have already done that – I don’t know who they are, but I have their information and I thank them.’
