LONDON -- A man died and another was seriously wounded on Tuesday night in shootings in northwestern London, local news reports said early Wednesday.

The man, believed to be in his 30s, was found with critical injuries outside the Queensbury tube station at around 9:00 pm local time (2000 GMT).

He died at the scene about an hour after police and medical workers arrived at Cumberland Road, where the shootings took place.

The injured man, in his 20s, was sent to a hospital in northern London. He remained in a stable condition, Sky News said.
