At least a dozen shots were fired into a home at Macquarie Fields on November 5.

Up to 40 shots were fired into a home at Casula in Sydney’s south-west on November 15.

Vision later emerged online of a gunman allegedly opening fire on the home, the automatic weapon allegedly used in the shooting was later found in an Audi crashed near the scene on Friday morning.
A 22-year-old man and a 16-year-old boy have been charged and remain before the courts.
Police Commissioner Mal Lanyon said following Friday’s shooting gun violence in the city’s west was “definitely not out of hand”, and that cracking down on organised crime remained a top priority for police.
“We’ve made significant arrests. We will not stand for the type of violence you are seeing there,” he said.
Former detective Luke Taylor told Nine’s Today program on Monday the spate of shootings across Sydney could be linked to an emerging “power vacuum” as influential organised crime groups split.
“Other gangs, people who were once affiliated with these gangs, splintering off and trying to become top dog in the gang scene in Sydney.
“With that, comes an increase in violence,” Taylor said.
