A man has appeared in court accused of trying to kill his brother and a woman who is critically injured.

Kenloy Clarke is said to have opened fire in Lordship Lane in Wood Green, north London, on Tuesday night.

Police were called to North Middlesex University hospital at about 9.50pm, where a man and a woman were suffering from gunshot wounds.

Clarke’s brother, Fitzroy Banton, 31, sustained injuries to his right arm, requiring an operation, and has been discharged.

But Janice Watson, 46, is said to be in a potentially life-threatening condition after she was shot in the left side of her chest, below her armpit.

Clarke appeared at Highbury Corner magistrates court on Saturday, charged with two counts of attempted murder and possession of a firearm.

District judge Julia Newton remanded him in custody until 18 October when he will appear at the Old Bailey.

Clarke is yet to enter pleas to the charges.
