Turnpike Lane shooting: Man shot inside takeaway a week after boy, 17, gunned down

A man has been shot inside a London takeaway this evening - just yards from where a 17-year-old was gunned down last week.

The man was reportedly shot inside a Roosters Piri Piri takeaway at Turnpike Lane in North London.

He has been rushed to hospital to be treated for non life threatening injuries.

Police including firearms officers were called to the scene around 8.30pm and discovered the man who was suffering from a gunshot wound.
