LONDON (AP) — British police say a woman has died and two people have been wounded in a shooting in east London. The Metropolitan Police force said on Tuesday that three people were found with gunshot wounds after officers were called to reports of a shooting in the east London neighborhood of Hackney. The police say a 42-year-old woman died at the scene. Two others, a 20-year-old man and a 16-year-old boy, were taken to a hospital. Police said a murder investigation was launched and detectives were working to establish what happened. No arrests have yet been made, and no other details were immediately available.
