A man who was shot and killed in Hammersmith earlier this week has been named by the Metropolitan Police as 30-year-old Jordan Oliver Rodney from Northolt.
Mr Rodney died following a shooting on Claxton Grove in Hammersmith on 11 June 2025. A second man, also in his 30s, was injured and has since been discharged from hospital.
In a statement released through the Met Police, Mr Rodney’s family described their devastation at his death: “It is with unimaginable heartbreak that we confirm the tragic loss of our beloved Jordan Olivier Rodney, who was taken from us far too soon. Jordan was a man who touched the lives of everyone who knew him. He was warm, funny, and loving. Always quick with a smile or a joke that could brighten the dark day.”
They added: “We will remember Jordie for the love he shared so freely, the laughter he inspired, and the way he made us all feel seen and valued. We ask for privacy as we grieve this devastating loss and whilst we work to come to terms with what has happened. We are eternally grateful for the outpouring of love and support during this incredibly difficult time.”
Police have charged Jahmel Joseph, 28, of Eaton Rise in Ealing, in connection with the incident. He is accused of murder, attempted murder, possession of a firearm with intent to endanger life, possession of a prohibited weapon and dangerous driving.
Joseph appeared at Bromley magistrates court yesterday (14 June 2025) and has been remanded to appear at the Old Bailey on 18 July 2025.
