Tanesha was hanging out with friends on Chalgrove Road, Tottenham, when she was shot by someone in a car shortly before 9.30 pm on Monday night, according to Metro UK.
Recall that we reported that Abraham Badru, a Nigerian living in the UK, was also shot dead recently on the streets of London by unidentified gunmen.
A woman who knew the murdered girl said the victim was “just chilling with friends” when she was shot from a car for “no reason at all.”
The 21-year-old, who did not want to be named, says: “the car just pulled up and just started shooting.”
She said she heard the gunshots “like fireworks” from her house.
Rapper Wretch32, who lives in Tottenham, tweets: “Wish I knew what to say about what’s happening in my ends. North London, we’re better than this man. SMH R.I.P to the young angel who lost her life last night. love & prayers to the family. I’m honestly lost for words.”
A witness adds: “Her friend came banging on my door so I came out quickly. I even tried to save her – had to, had to.”
She said the gunshot wound, below the victim’s breast, was not immediately visible and it looked like she was “having a fit.”
“I put her on her side and I was just rubbing her back, saying ‘everything’s going to be OK’.
“I just can’t believe it – so young. It’s ridiculous now.”
The woman said the victim was not responding but adds: “I could see she was looking at me.” She told how the girl’s mother arrived before paramedics, adding: “She was screaming. She didn’t know what to do.
