Three Drive-by Shootings Overnight in Western Sydney

Police probe possible links between three shootings and two car fires in south-west Sydney, with no injuries reported but residents described as highly traumatised.

  • NSW Police are investigating three public place shootings in south-west Sydney overnight involving a house on Margaret Street, Fairfield, a caravan on Aberdeen Street, Bossley Park, and a business on McIlwraith Street, Wetherill Park.
  • Just after 11.15pm on Wednesday, the first shooting hit a house in Margaret Street, Fairfield; further shots were fired at Aberdeen Street, Bossley Park at 11:55pm, and before 3am on Thursday at McIlwraith Street, Wetherill Park.
  • Police said vehicles left each scene, noting a dark-coloured SUV left Fairfield, a white Audi sedan departed Bossley Park, and a black SUV or utility left Wetherill Park, with bullet casings recovered at Bossley Park.
  • No injuries were reported, and Superintendent Craig Middleton said many residents were not known to police, warning the attacks targeted premises with `Innocent people`, including a Bossley Park 80-year-old couple.
  • Police are probing links to two overnight car fires at Kings Langley and Lalor Park and examining a burnt‑out white Lexus hatchback, urging anyone with information to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
