Tottenham murder of Andre Salmon: Police release image of man they want to speak to after shooting

Police have released an image of a man they want to speak to as part of a murder investigation in Haringey.

Andre Salmon, 18, was fatally shot in Constable Crescent, Tottenham, on Monday (July 3).

DCI Dave Whellams said: “Our investigation is continuing at pace, and as part of our inquiries we have now identified an individual we would like to trace. Have you seen 18-year-old Reagan Konin?

“Do you have information regarding his whereabouts? If you can help please contact us. Konin is believed to have connections to Tottenham, Haringey, and north London in general. If seen, I would urge members of the public not to approach him, but to call 999.”

Police were called at 5pm on Monday to reports of an injured man.

Despite the efforts of emergency services Andre was pronounced dead at the scene.

His next of kin are being supported by specialist officers and a post mortem examination is expected to be held on Friday.

Police believe Andre was travelling on a moped when he was shot by a suspect in nearby Stamford Road. Following the incident, Andre continued along Stamford Road, turning left into Constable Crescent where, due to his injury, his moped collided with a parked car and he collapsed.

Following the shooting, the suspect - described as a black man in his late teens/early twenties - made off from Stamford Road.

Detective Chief Inspector Dave Whellams, specialist crime north, said: “My thoughts are with the family and friends of young Andre, who has lost his life in devastating circumstances. This incident was even more shocking given it took place on a residential street in broad daylight.

"My officers have been working around the clock to establish what has happened and we will do everything in our power to identify the individual responsible and ensure they are brought to justice.

"While we carry out various inquiries I would appeal to anyone who believes they may have information which could assist this investigation to come forward. No detail is too small and if you don’t feel comfortable speaking to police you can contact Crimestoppers anonymously.”

No arrests have been made.

Detective Chief Superintendent Caroline Haines, lead for policing in Haringey, said: “My colleagues and I are truly saddened by the news of another young life lost in our borough, and I know this is a sentiment shared by the wider community who will also have justified concerns about the incident.

"I want to reassure those living in Haringey that the investigation team are working diligently to find out what happened and identify the person responsible. Local officers will be assisting detectives by carrying out reassurance patrols in the area over the coming days. Please engage with officers and speak to them about your concerns or to pass on information that could assist with the investigation.”

Police ask any witnesses or those with material that could assist them to call 101 ref CAD 5678/3 Jul.
