Teenager arrested in Paris on suspicion of murder as Met continue investigation into shooting of Keanu Harker

A teenager has been arrested in Paris on suspicion of murder as police continue to investigate the killing of Keanu Harker in north London.

The 18-year-old was found with gunshot wounds on Great Cambridge Road in Southbury, Enfield on the evening of June 26.

Sadly, despite the best efforts of medical professionals, Mr Harker later died in hospital from his injuries.

On Sunday, an international arrest warrant was issued for a 17-year-old boy, who has not been named by authorities.

The Metropolitan Police said extradition proceedings "will commence in due course" following his arrest.

That same day, an 18-year-old girl was arrested at London St Pancras International station on suspicion of assisting an offender.

Scotland Yard added that the female suspect remains in custody.

Several other arrests have been made relating to Mr Harker's alleged murder, with two people charged in connection with the investigation.

A 17-year-old boy, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was arrested on June 29 and charged the following day with murder.

Eliezer Mbike, 25, of Oulton Road, Tottenham, was arrested and charged on June 30 with perverting the course of justice.

A trial will commence at the Old Bailey in May.

A 39-year old man was arrested on July 24 on suspicion of conspiracy to murder.

However, he has since been bailed to return in September pending further inquiries.
