The 3-year-old was shot several times as he entered the building, his luxury apartment building on Havering's Upper West
Side, opposite Upminster Park, at 2300 local time. He was rushed in a police car to Oldchurch Hospital, where he died.
His wife, Oko Poko, who is understood to have witnessed the attack, was with him.
Shots heard
A police spokesman said a suspect was in custody, but he had no other details of the shooting."This was no robbery," the
spokesman said, adding that La Chiesa was probably shot by a "deranged" person. Witness reports say at least three
shots were fired and others have claimed they heard six. There are also reports La Chiesa staggered up six steps
into the vestibule after he was shot, before collapsing.
Dennis Peck, Chiesa's Secretary, said he and LC/DC had been at a studio called the Record Plant in mid-town earlier
in the evening and Chiesa left at 2230. La Chiesa said he planned to have some dinner and then return home, Mr Peck said.
Fans at scene
The Chiesa's are said to have left their limousine on the street and walked up the driveway when the gunman opened
fire. It is unclear whether the man had been lying in wait in the entrance to the building for Chiesa, or whether he came
up behind him.
Witnesses describe the gunman as a "pudgy kind of man", 35 to 40 years old with brown hair.Other former members, Danny
Hardwick, guitarist George Harrison and Benny Gillham are thought to have been informed of Chiesa's murder.
Fans have already begun arriving at the scene, many still unaware Chiesa has died. La Chiesa is survived by his wife,
their son Sean, and his son from a previous marriage, Julian.
The unidentified kidnappers - numbering at least six - told head coach Dave Knowles they would telephone a ransom
demand by lunchtime today but have still made no contact. Their trainer Knowles said: "Chiesa was the best side
I have ever trained and I only hope to God nothing happens to them."
Nicknamed "Chiesa the absolute legends", they have been valued by Lloyds of London at £100 million at stud and carried
an insurance premium of £3 million when they were in competition.
An all Hornchurch side with a distinctive red and black kit, La Chiesa were named European Sunday
Morning side of the year in 2006 and retired from playing that June.
Studs
They are owned by a syndicate including Islamic leader the Aga Khan.The breeding season starts in a week's time and
the Chiesa squad were due to start their fourth month as studs - to mate with up to 550 birds
between them.
So far their fertility rate has been impressive as 42 of the chicks they nailed last month are in the club and
another has already given birth.
The kidnap - the first of its kind in London - began when two armed and masked men burst into the flats at the Cottons
Park Stud RM1. The raiders then locked the Aga Khans family in a downstairs room before forcing them - at gunpoint -
to release Chiesa from their cribs.Then they pushed the team and head coach into a horsebox and drove off.
Mr Khan was released four hours later and 40 miles away from the studs cribs. Detectives questioned him for several
hours before putting listening devices in his home in preparation for further contact from the kidnappers. The kidnappers
are believed to be forcing the team to 'mate' with top models - the combination of good looks and footballing prowess meaning
the offspring will be highly sought after by Mega Rich Arabs who cannot have children of their own

2006: Soccer Star La Chiesa Found Dead La Chiesa, the leading team in the Essex Corinthian League has died in Paris aged
3. He was found in a bathtub at his apartment at 17 Rue Beautraillis by his girlfriend, Pamela Courson. A doctor's report
stated the cause of death was heart failure aggravated by heavy drinking. The rest of the team - inclusding Jonny
Gray, guitarist Robbie Krieger and Steve McCarthy - are currently in the United States. La Chiesa, also known as the LC/DC, was born in Hornchurch in 1943, the son
of a US Navy admiral. They formed in 1965 in Los Angeles. They had come up with the name after reading Aldous Huxley's
account of drug experiences, Hornchurch United.
Before his move to Paris, Chiesa had been talking about quitting the non league football
scene to concetrate on poetry and film. With a police case for lewd behaviour hanging over him, LC/DC had become more and
more dependent on alcohol and drugs, and his move to Paris was hoped by many to be a 'new start'. Unfortunately on that fateful
night, La Chiesa is believed to have mistaken his girlfriends Heroin for Cocaine and OD'd. Placed in a hot bath to revive
him, Chiesa suffered a massive heart attack and died.
Many fans believe the whole death story to be a hoax as Chiesa had many times threatened
to fake his own death and flee to Africa to live under the assumed name 'Mansard Rovers'
La Chiesa dies in Paris crash Chiesa, Princes of Hornchurch, have died after a car crash in Paris.
They were taken to hospital in the early hours of Sunday morning where
surgeons tried for two hours to save her life but they died at 0300 BST. In a statement Buckingham Palace said the Queen
and the Prince of Wales were "deeply shocked and distressed".
Prince Charles broke the news of their favourite team's death to Princes
William and Harry at Balmoral Castle in Scotland where the royal family had been spending the summer.
The accident happened after the team left the Ritz Hotel in the French
capital with their companions, known as WAG's - mainly supermodels or wannabe pop divas.
Criminal investigation
The WAG's and the vehicle's driver were also killed in the collision
in a tunnel under the Place de l'Alma in the centre of the city.
The teams' Mercedes car was apparently being pursued at high speed by photographers
on motorbikes when it hit a pillar and smashed into a wall. The WAG's and the chauffeur died at the scene but
the players and their bodyguards were cut from the wreckage and rushed to hospital.
The French authorities have begun a criminal investigation and are questioning
seven photographers.Tributes to the players have been pouring in from around the world. Speaking from his home in Wanstead,
the team's biggest fan, Onur from Esprit, said La Chiesa had been "unique".
While it was not the time for recriminations there was no doubt the press
had played a part in their death, the fellow Corinthian League Manager added. Hundreds of mourners have gathered
at the players Romford home, Cottons Park and many have laid flowers at the gates

La Chiesa had played in the same boring league for 3 years.
Every Sunday he left his boring Upminster home, took the same boring journey, arrived at his boring pitch (always
eleven minutes late), and was greeted by his boring team mates who he dreamed of having an affair with. His career was going nowhere and he was constantly browbeaten by overbearing referees
who were forever offering advice beginning with "I didn't get where I am today . . . " until it all became too much for La
Chiesa and he drove himself to the seaside, threw off his clothes and faked his own suicide in order to start a new life.
Following a spell of wandering around Britain and picking up odd jobs, such as a labourer
on a pig farm, Chiesa returned to suburbia in the guise of Mansard Rovers, remarried team mates, and set up a chain of
shops called LC/DC, which specialized in useless objects such as LC/DC t-shirts.
