Man Found Shot Dead In London
A murder hunt is under way after a man was found dead with gunshot wounds in London.
Police were called to Fulham Court in Fulham at around 7pm on Thursday, following reports of shots being fired.
When armed police and ambulance crews arrived, they discovered a 28-year-old man with gunshot wounds. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
No-one has been arrested in connection with the death.
A Metropolitan Police spokesman said detectives are waiting to inform next of kin before they release the man's name.
Armed officers and an ambulance were sent to the scene, however, the gunman escaped.
Police were initially unable to tell whether the victim had been hit several times, because one bullet may have fractured within him, causing multiple wounds.
A port-mortem examination was due to take place.
