Nightclub in Wembley shut down after shooting
A Wembley nightclub has been closed down by the police after a woman was shot there in the early hours of this morning.
Crystals, in South Way, will be turning away New Years Eve revellers after Brent Police obtained a 24 hour closure order from Willesden Magistrates’ Court.
The action was taken after a woman was shot in the leg at around 3.30am.
The victim, who is in her late teens, was hit after shots were fired into the partying crowd.
She is in a stable condition with non-life threatening injuries.
Two other women were treated for injuries sustained by falling glass.
Detectives from Operation Trident, the Met’s specialist team that probes gun crime, are investigating the incident.
