Arrest made after murder of young Christian father in Croydon

Akeem Moore, 22, was shot in the garden of a house on Eastney Road on Friday 7 October.

London's Metropolitan Police said on Tuesday a 36-year-old man had been arrested on suspicion of murder, attempted murder, possession of a firearm, and perverting the course of justice.

He is currently in custody at a south London police station.

At the time of the killing Mr Moore's mother, Lilian Hinchley-Nelson, appealed for prayers.

"May God give myself and my family the strength and comfort at this time," she said.

A man has been arrested in connection with the murder of a young Christian father of three in Croydon in October 2016.
