A 22-year-old, who is fighting for his life after having ‘half his face blown off’ in a shooting, has today been named as semi-professional boxer Oluwafemi Omosuyi.
Mr Omosuyi, known as Femi, had recently come back from training in Dublin when he was gunned down outside Oliver Goldsmith Primary in Peckham, south London, last night.
He was blasted with a shotgun in the upper body and received pellet wounds to the face just before 8pm on Wodehouse Avenue, sparking an armed police response.
Horrifying footage emerged online purportedly showing the aftermath of the double shooting.
In the gruesome video, crowds of onlookers hover over a man, believed to be Mr Omosuyi with blood gushing from his face.
He was taken to hospital with life changing injuries and remains in critical, but stable, condition. A second victim, 25, received superficial injuries in the gangland attack.
Mr Omosuyi, 22, boxed for All Stars Boxing Gym, west London, and is a prospect ‘heavyweight’, according to his club. But the shooting may have an impact on his career.
His mother, Stella Aladetam, 53, revealed her son has had emergency surgery and pleaded for witnesses to come forward so Mr Omosuyi’s attackers can be brought to justice.
Ms Aladetam said: ‘A friend came to tell us what happened, he was here on Saturday and he went out with friends.
‘I was so shocked, he was in the operating theatre until about midnight yesterday, I was so panicked I couldn’t even eat, just panic and shock. He is sleeping now, his sister is with him in hospital.
‘We are trying to get their names so police can arrest them.
‘He had just come back from a month’s training in Dublin and his coach had told him to stay at home and get some rest.

In February, talented and ‘explosive’ boxer, Mr Omosuyi, won a match in just 30 seconds when he knocked out his opponent in the first round and had spent a month training in Dublin for matches this summer

‘He was in the car with friends and they just came up and shot him through the window in the face, he also was hit in the arm and the hand.
‘Femi was never involved in gangs and his friends were always nice, these two boys who shot him I just want them arrested. I hope he is okay, you never pray for your children to get shot.
‘He trains at least three times a week, twice in the week and once at weekends. He loved his boxing, he was so happy to be training in Dublin, very happy.’

Today a friend, who did not want to be named, said he had got involved in the wrong crowd.
He said: ‘I heard two gunshots and then heard it was Femi. I have known him since he was a kid, he got into the wrong crowd, these are the consequences when kids just don’t respect their elders anymore.’
A Scotland Yard spokesperson said: ‘Police were called to Wodehouse Avenue, SE5 at 7.56pm on Saturday, June 2 to reports of a shooting.
‘Officers, including armed police, attended and found two men aged 22 and 25 suffering gun shot injuries.
