Charges have been upgraded after a shooting in east London back in March.
London police say the charges against a 73-year-old man have been upgraded from aggravated assault to attempted murder.
Police were called to the area between Hamilton Road and Dame Street after a 59-year-old man suffered a gunshot wound along with other injuries — the victim has since been released from hospital.
The accused is scheduled to appear in court in June.
