Detectives from the Armed Crime Squad are investigating after an incident in Donvale overnight where a man was shot.
Emergency services were called to Sturdee Road following reports a man had sustained a gunshot wound to the lower body about 1.40am on Thursday, 22 June.
A 46-year-old Donvale man was taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
Two other females inside the property at the time – a 44-year-old and a 16-year-old – were not physically harmed during the incident.
