A man shot dead by a police officer was a “core member” of a notorious gang who was accused of shooting a rival in the legs in a Hackney nightclub just weeks before he died.

The 24-year-old was said to have shot a rival in the legs at a nightclub six days before he died in September 2022, and would have stood trial for attempted murder had he survived.

Chris Kaba hugged his mother and set off from her home in Peckham, southeast London, shortly after 9pm on September 5, 2022. He said he was going to visit a friend and drove away in a blue Audi Q8. It would be the last time that Helen Lumuanganu, 53, saw her son alive.
