A 32-year-old man is still fighting for his life in an east London hospital, a week after officers found him sitting in a parked car on Frances Street, Woolwich, with a gunshot wound. Police were called at 8:09pm on 22 October, and officers gave first aid at the scene until the London Ambulance Service and Air Ambulance arrived.
