Three arrested after man shot dead in car park

Tamba Momodu, 20, was shot dead in a car park in October 2020

Three people have been arrested after a man was shot dead in a car park more than three years ago.

Tamba Momodu, 20, was shot six times as he visited a gym at Bridges Business Park in Horsehay in Telford, Shropshire, on 13 October 2020.

A burnt out grey Skoda Karoq was later found in a car park at The Wrekin in Wellington, which police believed to be connected to the shooting.

West Mercia Police confirmed three men were arrested on suspicion of murder and arson on Tuesday.

The Dutch authorities assisted in one of the arrests and the three remain in custody, police said.

Det Ch Insp Mark Bellamy said: “I have maintained my commitment to Tamba’s family that we will do all we can to give them the answers they need around Tamba’s death.”

West Mercia Police said 30 arrests had been made since the start of the investigation.

An inquest into the death of Mr Momodu, from Telford, previously concluded that he was unlawfully killed.

Mr Momodu, of Summercroft, Donnington, was born in London in May 2000 and moved to Telford with his family in 2018.
