Detectives investigating the murder of a man who was shot in the back of the head while walking home through a park in Penge have made an arrest.
Mr Edwards, 43, was killed in Betts Park in the early hours of 12 July after meeting friends for a drink.
A 25-year-old man was held on Sunday on suspicion of murdering Dean Edwards, and is being questioned at a London police station, Scotland Yard said.
Det Ch Insp Kate Kieran described the arrested as "a major development in our investigation", but added the force "will continue to work hard to make sure that those who are responsible for Dean's death are brought to justice".
"Dean's death is a tragic reminder that carrying a gun has devastating consequences and I continue to plea to anyone with any information to come forward either by calling police on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously."
