The mur­der of 42-year-old Michael Dun­can out­side his Bel­mont home on Mon­day night is be­lieved to be the lat­est in­ci­dent in an on­go­ing gang war be­tween ri­val gangs in the com­mu­ni­ty, res­i­dents say.

Po­lice said Dun­can, alias “Don­key”, was sit­ting in his sil­ver Nis­san Almera, which was parked out­side his Lu­cien Road home, around 9.55 pm when res­i­dents heard a vol­ley of gun­fire.

One of Dun­can’s rel­a­tives who was in the house at the time checked and saw him slumped in the dri­ver’s side seat of the car with sev­er­al gun­shot wounds.
