Man Shot Dead in Community Centre Car Park
Police said witnesses saw a car flee as a man was shot dead, with investigators linking the case to Sydney gang violence.

- Witnesses told police a car sped away from the Punchbowl Community Centre carpark as the shots were fired, leaving the victim unidentified.
- This shooting comes two days after the Minns government announced a suite of measures targeting an outbreak of gangland violence on Sydney streets.
