VICTIMS gunned down in a drive-by shooting outside a London Tube station last night ran into a shop screaming for help.
A witness told the Sun Online the bloody pair stumbled into his Kingsbury store last night shouting "help, help, call an ambulance".
He added: "One was holding his leg. He’d been shot in his bottom I think.
“They ran behind my till and held the door closed.
“I called the ambulance and then police came in minutes.
“We have a massive problem with gangs around here. I’ve told the police, CID, but they don’t listen.
“Groups of young boys carrying knives, smoking drugs.
“But you can’t do anything because if you confront one, 100 will come back at you.
“I’ve been here for 23 years and this is some of the worst I’ve seen.”
Chilling footage obtained exclusively by The Sun Online captures the panic after a tube station drive-by shooting attack that left three people injured on Kingsbury Road in Brent, North West London.
Surrounded by stunned bystanders, the wailing victim can be heard screaming: "Get me an ambulance".
A mum of one, who lives close to the scene, said: “I heard five gun shots. It was really scary.
“I have a five year old son so I just told him to lay flat on the bed until it was all over.
“Then we heard all the sirens. There’s a lot of problems with gangs around here.
“They deal drugs and sometimes stash them with their knives in our block.”
Police are yet to make any arrests in relation to the shooting - which is not being treated as terror-related.
The terrified witness, who filmed from inside a pizza shop, described how chaos erupted after the suspected drive-by gangland hit just after 9.45pm last night.

He told the Sun Online: "There were a couple of really loud bangs - shots - and people started screaming and panicking.
"The guy who was shot started screaming and some guys sped off in a car.
"I didn't see how many — I wish I had got my eyes on the car."
The witness, who wished to remain anonymous, told how the young man pleaded for help as he lay bleeding on the pavement.
He said: "He was in immense pain and on the floor screaming in agony and calling for help.
"There was panic everywhere. Officers were there within five minutes or less.
"It's quite shocking. I would definitely say it was gang related.
"Gangs hang around that area all the time. That place has history."
