Father gunned down in street named

A father of two who was shot dead at his front door in what is believed to be a gang-related attack has been named by police. Amran Khan, 29, from Oldham, Greater Manchester was gunned down on Friday night when he opened his door on hearing a disturbance. Three shots were fired at the victim, who lived on Nugget Street, and one of the bullets hit him in the chest, police said. He died at the Royal Oldham Hospital in the early hours of Saturday, leaving behind a wife and two young daughters, aged one and four years old. Officers are trying to establish a motive, but according to sources, the attack may have been gang-related. Chief Superintendent Caroline Ball, from Oldham Police, urged anyone with information to come forward. She said: "Tragically, a young man has lost his life as a result of this shooting and our thoughts are with his wife and two young daughters during this traumatic time. "We understand the community will be very shocked and deeply upset by what has happened, so I would ask that they work with us to help find whomever is responsible for Amran's murder. "If the answers are in the community, then that positive dialogue will help us find Amran's killers." Ms Ball said there would be an increased police presence in the area over the coming days to reassure residents
