Police are urgently trying to trace a 20-year-old man after a shooting at a child's birthday party in southeast London.
Detectives have released a photograph of the suspect, Alfie Gannon, who is alleged to have opened fire on another man as he stood next to his young stepson.
The shooting took place on May 18 at a house in Bromley but police have been unable to trace Gannon, who is believed to have links to West Yorkshire.
The shooting followed an argument at a house in Ravenscar Road, where a 10-year-old girl's birthday party was taking place.
After an argument, during which threats to kill were allegedly made, the suspect was thrown out of house.
Police say he returned a short time later and shot a 22-year-old man on the doorstep with a semi-automatic pistol. The victim has since made a full recovery.
Detective Constable Paul Buckley, of the Metropolitan Police's gang unit Trident, which is leading the search for Gannon, described the shooting as "shocking".
"Understandably both the children and guests at the party were extremely traumatised by the senseless actions of the suspect," he said.
"We have released an image of a man wanted in connection with the shooting in the hope that he himself will come forward, or that those who may know his whereabouts contact the police.
"I would like to reassure any potential witnesses who may be worried about making contact with police that Trident has extensive expertise in protecting witnesses and there are a range of measures that can be taken to protect you.
"Members of the public are urged not to approach the suspect and instead call 999, the Trident team on 0208 785 8580 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111."
