Suspected Kent pub shooter believed drowned in Thames

Lisa Smith, 43, was fatally shot outside The Three Horseshoes pub in Knockholt on Valentine's Day, and the prime suspect, Edvard Stockings, is believed to have died after falling into the River Thames. Police found a car containing a handgun abandoned on the Queen Elizabeth II Bridge, about 17 miles from the crime scene, where a man was seen near the barrier moments before the incident. Detective Chief Inspector Dave Higham confirmed ongoing searches for Stockings' body, which have yet to yield results. Witnesses at the pub described a chaotic scene as patrons reacted to the shooting. Friends of Stockings reported a troubling phone call he made shortly after the shooting, expressing despair and indicating he couldn't live after the incident. The investigation continues as police prepare their findings to assist the coroner.
