Arrest Made in Brentford Shooting Case

Man held in relation to the murder of Dean Tully

A 23 year old man has been arrested in connection with the murder of a man with a machine gun on the Brentford Towers estate.

As the man was bailed it is thought unlikely that he was the person directly responsible for gunning down Dean Tully. He is due to return to a local police station next week.

Mr. Tully died this January after shots were fired at a flat off Green Dragon Lane in what is believed to have been a drugs related incident. Another man also received gunshot wounds but has been released from hospital.
