Soccer manager shot dead in front of players.

Sad. More here.
A football manager was shot dead in front of horrified children after being ambushed by a masked gunman.

Ryan Musgrove, 36, was blasted six times by his attacker, who hid in bushes waiting for him at playing fields on Thursday night as children played nearby.

The killer, wearing a white mask and skiing goggles, fled on a mountain bike leaving his victim in a pool of blood.
Teammates chased the gunman but he disappeared into nearby fields at West Wickham, north Kent.

Mr Musgrove, a divorced electrician with a teenage son and daughter, died at the scene before medics arrived, despite frantic attempts to save him.

Last night forensic experts searched woodland as police investigated if there was any link to gang violence.

Detective Chief Inspector John McFarlane said: 'It was obviously a planned, callous attack. The victim was a family man, he was a father and an innocent victim.'
