The shooting tonight comes just hours after shots were fired outside a school in west London.

Armed police were dispatched shortly after 4pm today after witnesses reported hearing three gunshots outside the Kennet West Skills Centre.

No students were in the school but building contractors working inside the building at the time of the incident spoke of how they ducked for cover after hearing the gunshots. 

In the earlier incident, a motorbike driver is said to have opened fire on a white Volvo on Kennet Road. 

No arrests were made at the earlier incident and the Metropolitan Police said it was too early to confirm whether the two incidents were related.
