Black Drive-By Gunmen Shot BLM Activist 'Black Panther Of Oxford' Sasha Johnson In The Head....

Drive-by gunmen shot 'Black Panther of Oxford' Sasha Johnson in the head as they opened fire on house party at 3am after 'dispute between rival gangs' - and she was NOT the intended target, says one of her friends 

A British Black Lives Matter leader took a bullet in the head when a London gang carried out a botched drive-by shooting to assassinate a rival at the end of an all-day party - and she was 'not the intended victim', a friend and fellow anti-racism campaigner said today. Sasha Johnson, 27, the self-styled 'Black Panther of Oxford' who has called for the police to be defunded after the murder of George Floyd as well as helping lead the 'Rhodes Must Fall' campaign to topple controversial statues, was 'brutally' attacked in Peckham after receiving multiple death threats, her political party said. But today family friend Imarn Ayton, founder of the UK Black Reformist Movement, said Sasha, famed for wearing black military uniform at protests including a stab-proof-style vest, was caught up in a dispute between two rival gangs - and was not shot because of her activism. ‘It was wrong place, wrong time. I do not believe she was the target’, she said.One neighbour in south-east London told MailOnline that she heard 'two shots' and then the sound of 'screeching' tyres at around 3am on Sunday. Forensics teams have sealed off the property and are searching the area for bullet casings and the weapon. Ms Ayton told the BBC: ‘As far as we’re aware she [Sasha] was at a party and there was a rival gang that may have heard about a person being there that they didn’t feel comfortable with, or trusted, so they resorted to driving past and shooting into a garden. And one of those shots obviously hit Sasha Johnson. But I don’t believe she was the intended target’. Source
