Two firearms officers have been charged after a 23-year-old man was shot outside a Sainsbury's in Wimbledon.
Brooklyn McFarlane was taking to hospital with non-life threatening injuries after he was shot during a pre-planned police operation in Haydons Road on December 3, 2018.
The Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) carried out an investigation in November last year and it notified the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) in January about possible charges.
A CPS spokesperson said: "The first officer, identified as NX1, is charged with wounding with intent.
"The second officer, known as MY55, is charged with attempted wounding with intent."
They are due appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on November 25 for their first hearing.
The IOPC explained that the officers have not been named to avoid prejudicing a related ongoing prosecution in which they will be giving evidence.
