A girl is in a stable condition in hospital along with a 34-year-old man whose condition is unknown.

An eight-year-old girl and a man have been seriously injured in a shooting, the Metropolitan Police has said.

The pair were taken to hospital following the shooting on Southern Row in Ladbroke Grove at about 17:30 GMT on Sunday. The girl is in a stable condition with non life-threatening injuries. The condition of the man, 34, is unknown, while a 32-year-old woman was also taken to hospital as a precaution. Supt Owen Renowden described it as "an appalling incident" and the leader of Kensington and Chelsea Council said it was "beyond belief that a child has been caught in the crossfire of violence on the streets of London once again".

The London Ambulance Service said it arrived within six minutes and treated two patients at the scene "before taking them to a major trauma centre as a priority".Joe Powell, MP for Kensington and Bayswater, said he was "appalled by the shooting"."I know residents in the local community will be rightly concerned for their safety after several recent incidents in the neighbourhood.
