A girl aged nine is “fighting for her life” after a shooting in which three adults were also seriously injured in Hackney, east London.
The “innocent victim” was having dinner with her family in a Dalston restaurant when shots came from outside, Ch Supt James Conway of the Metropolitan Police said.
Three men, aged 26, 37 and 42, sitting outside the restaurant were also injured by the gunshot, believed to have come from a motorbike.
They and the girl, who are not believed to be known to each other, remain in hospital, with one of the men suffering “life-changing” injuries.
