A fourth man has been arrested in connection with a fatal shooting outside Wandsworth Prison.

Darcy Austin-Bruce, 20, was shot on Heathfield Road outside the jail on Friday afternoon.

It is believed he was a prison visitor.

A 27-year-old man was arrested in south London on Sunday, police said.

Three other men, aged 19, 22 and 26, who were arrested on Friday on suspicion of murder were released on bail on Saturday evening.

A post mortem examination found Mr Austin-Bruce was killed by multiple gunshot wounds to the torso.

Police say they are keeping an open mind as to the motive for the shooting.

Two men wearing crash helmets were seen running away from the scene of the attack towards Alma Terrace after a series of gunshots were heard.

Officers from Operation Trident are investigating the shooting.
