Man shot dead in West Ealing is believed to be Kensal Green gang member
Victim, 32, dies at the scene and 28-year-old woman left fighting for her life
A man gunned down in a double shooting in West Ealing is believed to be a former member of a notorious Kensal Green gang.
The 32-year-old Jamaican was shot dead and a 28-year-old woman, who is believed to be his partner, was left fighting for her life after a gunman struck at an address at 2.50pm.
The victim who is known as ‘Sonny’ or ‘Don’ is thought to have been a member of the ‘Mus Love Crew’ from Kensal Green.
The gang disbanded after six members were jailed for a murder which took place in 2004.
Tafari Dacas, Lloywen Carty, Conroy Smith, Leon Roberts, Shane Taylor, and Jermaine Labastide, gunned down Lee Subaran at a post Notting Hill Carnival party in Hazel Road, Kensal Green.
They were all jailed for life in 2006.

Last year, Carty’s 16-year-old half-brother Santre Sanchez Gayle was jailed for murdering 26-year-old Gulistan Subasi in Hackney.
Gayle, who shot her dead when he was 15, is believed to be the country’s youngest ever contract killer.
