CCTV released of the night bus driver was shot dead in London

Police believe a bus driver who was shot dead in south London was not the intended target - and was in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Auguste-Marie Bile-aka Amoa, 25, died from gunshot wounds shortly after 9.57pm on 10 August after being shot outside a pub in Clapham.

The Metropolitan Police said it is "keeping an open mind as to the motive" and urged anyone with information to come forward.

The force has also released new CCTV pictures of the moments after the shooting.

The first clip shows a moped turning right from Landor Road into Willington Road, where the shooting took place, at 9.56pm.

The second clip shows the same moped leaving the area along Kings Avenue at 9.57pm.

A £20,000 reward from the Crimestoppers charity is also being offered for information leading to the identification and conviction of those responsible.

A Met Police spokesman said: "While officers are keeping an open mind as to the motive, investigators believe Bile-Aka was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time and was not the intended target of the attack."

Detective Chief Inspector Claire Guiver said: "The loss of Bile-Aka continues to hurt his family as they are left with a void that cannot be filled as a result of this tragic incident.

"There is someone out there who knows what happened that night and we are urging those individuals to find it in their heart to come forward.

"No matter how small you think the information is, please speak to us. It could be exactly what we need to find those responsible."

The victim's family said he was an "amazing young man full of love, kindness and an enthusiasm for life" and appealed for information to "ensure that justice is served".

A 22-year-old man arrested on suspicion of murder on 10 August was later released with no further action following police enquiries.

No further arrests have been made.
