A MOTHER whose teenage son was shot in the face is pleading for information about the “evil” killers who murdered him.

Charlie Wright from Eltham was shot on April 23, 2010 at a house in Park Mews, Calvert Road, Greenwich - no one has ever been charged.

Police were called at around 2.05am and attended with the London Ambulance Service. However, the 17-year-old was pronounced dead at the scene.

Witnesses reported seeing a group of four to five young black men run from the house towards Woolwich Road shortly after the shooting.

This Saturday (January 21) marks Charlie’s 19th birthday and in a renewed effort to catch his killers, the Met and Charlie’s family are appealing for information.

“I am pleading with them, pleading with them to help. Please, please, I want these sort of people off the streets who did that to my 17-year-old son, who had his whole life ahead of him."

The 41-year-old added: “If anybody knows any information please help catch these evil, evil people that shouldn’t be out on our streets."

The Met is offering a reward of up to £20,000 for information leading to the identification, arrest and prosecution of the person or people responsible the murder.
