Four people, one a 15-year-old boy, were shot and injured over the last 24 hours in separate incidents in Maloney and Carapichaima.

In the first incident, three men were shot while attempting to attend a house party in Maloney on Friday night. Around 8:30 p.m., a 15-year-old boy and two 21-year-old men arrived at the Building 7 car park, Maloney, in a purple Aqua. The vehicle was driven by one of the 21-year-olds.

Upon arrival, the occupants attempted to contact a female when they observed a man walking towards their vehicle. The man, who was described as slim-built, approximately 5 feet 6 inches tall, and wearing a black T-shirt, was armed with a pistol. He then pointed the firearm in their direction and fired multiple shots before fleeing.
