FOUR people and a teenager have been arrested after a man was shot dead and a car set on fire near the Harry Potter studios.
Mustapha Jatta, 30, died from his injuries shortly after police arrived on the scene in Kings Langley, Hertfordshire.

Jatta was gunned down on Railway Terrace at 12.33am on Tuesday 17 September.
Just 15 minutes after the shooting, Three Rivers Police were called to a car fire in Furtherfield, Abbots Langley.
A white Volkswagen Golf had been torched in the quiet housing estate, which backs onto the Warner Bros. Studio Tour, where the Harry Potter films were created.
Cops believe the fire and Jatta’s murder are linked and have since arrested four people and a teenage boy.
A man in his 20s and two men in their 30s were arrested on suspicion of murder, as well as a woman in her 20s and a teenage boy.
All five suspects have been released on police bail as the investigation continues.
Detective Inspector Dale Mepstead, from the BCH Major Crime Unit, said: “We have been making significant progress with this investigation and have now arrested five people in connection with Mustapha’s murder. Our enquiries are ongoing at this time.”
