Overview
- NSW Police confirmed two women and a man were killed, and another man was hospitalized in serious but stable condition in Lake Cargelligo.
- Assistant Commissioner Andy Holland said an identified suspect remains at large and is believed to be armed, with tactical units and air support leading a large-area search.
- Emergency calls came about 4:20–4:40 p.m. after shots were fired into a vehicle on Bokhara Street killing a man and woman, followed shortly by a fatal shooting on Walker Street that left a woman dead and a man wounded.
- Authorities cordoned off the town to restrict movement, issued geo‑targeted SMS alerts urging residents to stay indoors, and appealed for CCTV, dashcam, and phone footage.
- Investigators have not confirmed a motive, though local media report a suspected domestic‑violence link, and the shootings coincided with a national day of mourning following the Bondi Beach attack.
