A 29-year-old man has been arrested over the murder of David Robinson who died after being “shot in the head” in Islington.
The 25-year-old was allegedly killed after an argument in a music studio in Hornsey, north London, at 9pm on August 20.
Mr Robinson, a former pupil of Islington Arts and Media School, was found collapsed in the doorway of the building in Sunnyside Road.
He was taken to hospital where he died three hours later.
A post-mortem examination, carried out on Tuesday, revealed Mr Robinson died from gunshot wounds.
He had previously been involved in gang violence but friends said the father-of-one, who had a daughter, had changed and become a “devout” Muslim known as Dawud.
A friend told the Standard: “He was a loving father and husband. He was a very honest and respectful man.
“He changed for the better and I know he only wanted to live his life without sin as he is very religious.”
A 29-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of murder yesterday after walking into a police station in north London.
