The scene of the shooting.
Appeal:
Detectives from the Met's specialist crime command (Trident) are leading the investigation.
Detective Chief Inspector Jimi Tele stated this was a shocking crime.
It has left a young woman with very serious injuries.
He added that, 'our thoughts are with her family who are being provided with support at this terribly difficult time'.
Detectives are said to be making good progress in the hunt for the attackers but they need help from the public.
The police are asking the public if anyone had seen anything suspicious in the Consort Road area in the early hours of Sunday.
Even if anyone has heard any information since, then it is crucial for them to get in touch with the police.
Anyone with information about the shooting should call police on 101 or tweet @MetCC with the reference CAD1172/23MAY.
Alternatively, call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

Friends:
Sasha’s mother is Ellet Dalling.
She had stated that what had happened to Sasha has left the family completely devastated.
She added that Sasha's children keep asking for their mummy, and she doesn't know what to say.
Sasha as we all know is passionate about standing up for peoples rights, no matter what!
So its very sad that of all the 30 people at that silent disco party, not one of them have made a statement!
No one has come forward to tell the police what happened that night.
Sasha would be the first person at your side, so return her loyalty and give the police their evidence?
Too often this kind of thing occurs whereas a good person that's trying to make things right for others, gets abandoned.
Sasha right now is doing what she has always done, she is fighting, but sadly fighting for her life.
She is your friend, she is your sister, so come forward and give her family some hope?
Call the Police on 101 or Crimestoppers, anonymously, using 0800 555 111 and provide the reference 1172/23MAY.
Great News...
Sasha: Condition improving.
