Motorcyclist sought year on from 'wicked' murder

Tikquaan Stephenson-Walters' family said he was a "cherished young man"

Footage of a motorcyclist wanted in connection with the murder of a man who was shot dead at close range in north London a year ago has been released by the Met Police.

Tikquaan Stephenson-Walters, 28, was shot by a suspect riding a white Honda Moped in Bravington Road, Kilburn, at about 23:05 BST on 4 September 2024, the Met said. He died at the scene.

Det Ch Insp Wayne Jolley, from the Met's Specialist Crime Command, said detectives wanted to identify the man captured on CCTV in the vicinity before the attack took place.

Mr Stephenson-Walters' family said they, along with the community, were "utterly broken by the devastating loss of such a special, innocent life".

The family statement added: "This heart-breaking tragedy serves as a reminder that Tikquaan could have been anyone's son, brother, nephew, or friend."

They called for people to come forward with information which could "be the key to bringing justice for Tikquaan and providing closure to his grieving family, friends, and our community".

Three men have been arrested on suspicion of murder, and a woman was arrested for assisting an offender.

The man and woman were released with no further action while the other two men remain on bail after being released under investigation while enquiries continue.

A £20,000 reward has been offered by Crimestoppers for information which leads to a conviction.

Det Chief Insp Jolley said detectives were "dedicated to bringing to justice whoever was responsible for this wicked violence".

He added officers had been handing out leaflets and speaking to members of the public on the anniversary of his death in the hope it jogged someone's memory.

Alexa Loukas, London regional manager for Crimestoppers, urged people to contact them anonymously if they could not speak to the police.

"Tikquaan was a cherished young man whose life was tragically cut short," she said.

"His family, friends, and the whole community deserve justice. Your information could be key to making that happen."
