Man drove car used in London double shooting

A masked driver has been found guilty of his part in two shootings – on the same night – which left one man dead and a second seriously injured.

On Nov 1 last year, Jason Diallo, 30, was knocked off a bicycle in Ilford, east London, and shot in the head, the Old Bailey heard. Witnesses described how two masked men had got out of a car, with one carrying a gun. One said: “Did you get him.” The other replied: “Yes, I got him.” Fifteen minutes later, Marcus Codrington, 29, was shot in the chest in Custom House, east London.

In both cases the shooter emerged from a Ford S-max. Muhsin Mohamed, 26, was the driver and found guilty of murder and attempted murder.
