Police investigating the death of Corey Junior Davis have made an arrest six years after he was shot and kiled.
Corey was shot in the head in a playground in Moore Walk, Forest Gate on September 4, 2017.
The 14-year-old, who was know as CJ, had been with a friend at the time when he was attacked at the east London playground.
He was taken to a nearby hospital but died the following day.
Years on from his murder, police arrested a 24-year-old man on Monday. The man has since been released under investigation.
Detective chief inspector Dave Whellams, from the Met’s Specialist Crime Command, said: "This is an important development in our investigation and demonstrates our commitment in our pursuit for justice for CJ and his family.
“We have informed them of this arrest and will continue to support them as our enquiries continue."
