Tributes have poured in for the victim of a tragic shooting incident in Camden.
Authorities responded to reports of gunfire around 23:00 hours on Saturday, March 28, on Chalton Street. Despite the efforts of emergency medical personnel, a 26-year-old man was pronounced dead at the scene.
Following a post-mortem examination conducted earlier today, March 31, the victim has been officially identified as Nahom Medhanie.
Nahom’s family, who are receiving support from specialized officers, expressed their grief in a heartfelt tribute:
“Nahom was more than a son and a brother to us, and since his passing, these have been the hardest days of our lives. He was funny, honest, and would just light up the room with his presence, and that’s what we loved most about him.”
The family has requested privacy during this difficult time.
The investigation is being led by homicide detectives from the Metropolitan Police’s Specialist Crime Command. CCTV footage indicates that Nahom was shot multiple times while seated in a white Nissan Juke, with the assailant arriving and departing on a bicycle.
As inquiries continue, no arrests have been made thus far. Authorities are urging anyone with information to reach out to the police by calling 101 and quoting CAD 8032/28MAR, or to contact Crimestoppers anonymously at 0800 555 111.
Additionally, any relevant information, including dash cam or other video footage, can be submitted to the investigation team via the Major Incident Public Portal.
