Police are appealing for witnesses after a man was shot in the shoulder in Wood Green.

Officers said three men were chased along Wood Green High Road on Monday (July 13) at around 9.45pm by a group of suspects with a firearm.

One of the three men - aged 27 - was shot in the shoulder before all three men were able to get to safety in a nearby shop.

Shots were fired into the shop and a staff member received minor injury but no hospital treatment was required.

Police said the suspects left the scene in what was believed to be a silver saloon car.

No motive has been established at this time and no arrest have been made.

The investigating officer, DS Mark Attridge said: "This incident took place on a main road that was busy with traffic and pedestrians.

"It was extremely lucky that other members of the public were not harmed.

"I am appealing for any witnesses or anyone with information to make contact with police or Crimestoppers anonymously.

"As I have mentioned, the area was busy, so drivers may have dashcam footage showing the group of suspects before or after the incident.”
