£10,000 reward offered over Telford drive-by murder
A £10,000 reward is being offered as police continue to hunt the killers who gunned down a 20-year-old man in Telford.
Sixteen people have been arrested over the drive-by murder of Tamba Momodu last year but so far nobody has been charged.
Crimestoppers is now offering the money for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of those linked to the killing.
Mr Momodu was shot multiple times and killed at about midday on October 13 in the car park of Bridges Business Park in Horsehay.
It is believed that the killers arrived in a grey Skoda Karoq with the false number plate YB69 VBO, before opening fire on Mr Momodu next to several occupied businesses, including a children's nursery.
They then left the area travelling away from Telford in different vehicles.
It is believed the wanted individuals have connections with Northolt in west London, Southampton and Glasgow.
The Skoda was later found burned out in the Forest Glen car park at the foot of the Wrekin at about 10pm.
Mick Duthie, director of operations at Crimestoppers, said: "This is a young life that has tragically been taken away and our condolences go to Tamba’s family and friends. Our charity believes in safe communities and we hope our reward and appeal will help to remove these dangerous individuals from our streets and help to get justice.
“We are asking for anyone with any information to be brave and to tell our charity what you know, 100 per cent anonymously. What you tell us can make all the difference in keeping others safe from harm and it will be the right thing to do.
“It is important to also remind people that assisting somebody wanted for a crime can lead to prosecution.
“Crimestoppers has been taking crime information since our charity was formed over 33 years ago. Every day over a thousand people contact us online and over the phone.
"We have always kept our promise of anonymity to the millions of people who have trusted us. Nobody will know you contacted us, only you and you could be eligible for a reward.”
In addition to the Skoda, information on anybody connected with the following vehicles is also required: a white Toyota IQ, AO59 UOX; a gret T-Cross, GK20 FXR; a black Audi A5, SE14 VBO; a white BMW 320D, YT63 HGG and a grey Jaguar, OV19 WMF.
