Overview

• Police identified the victim as Osama Momani, who was shot through a car window on Regiment Grove about 7pm and later died at Westmead Hospital.
• A burnt-out Toyota SUV found on Bounty Place in Old Toongabbie about 11:15pm is believed to be linked to the attack, with crime scenes established at both locations.
• The car’s driver was not injured and is assisting officers, and the ABC reports the second person in the vehicle was an Uber driver.
• Court records show Momani was on bail awaiting a District Court trial over a 2023 violent home invasion, which investigators are considering as they assess possible motives.
• Police say it is the second fatal public shooting in days following the Forest Lodge attack, as Taskforce Falcon pursues broader gang‑related investigations across Sydney.
