Detectives investigating a murder in Clapham have announced a £20,000 reward for information that leads to the identification, arrest and prosecution of the killers.

Auguste-Marie Amoa, Bile-Aka to his family, was a bus driver. The 25-year-old died from gunshot wounds on Willington Road, Clapham, on August 10.

While officers are keeping an open mind about the motive, investigators believe Mr Amoa was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time and was not the intended target, according to a statement by the Met Police on Thursday.

Detectives investigating the shooting released new CCTV footage which they believe shows the two suspects on a moped moments before and after the incident. The first clip shows the moped turning right from Landor Road into Willington Road, where the shooting took place, at 9:56 p.m. on August 10. The second clip shows the same moped leaving the area along Kings Avenue, Clapham, at 9:57 p.m.

A 22-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of murder on August 10 and was subsequently released with no further action following police enquiries. No further arrests have been made so far.

Chief inspector Claire Guiver, leading the Met’s investigation, said, “A reward of up to £20,000 is being offered by the independent charity Crimestoppers for information leading to the identification and conviction of those responsible.”

Crimestoppers is offering the reward for any information which the charity exclusively receives and leads to the conviction of those responsible for the murder of Mr Amoa, according to the police.
