Police fear there will be more attacks by gangs, after a man with links to crime gangs was shot dead in Melbourne.
26-year-old Athan Boursinos had been linked with the death of a rival gang leader before he died, and there are concerns there could be more violence to come.
Detective Inspector Dean Thomas is with the Victoria Police.
"This is deliberate and obviously targeted. We will work now to piece together what has gone on."

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese is travelling to the Northern Territory for Australia's largest Indigenous gathering.
The Garma Festival is held over the next four days in remote northeast Arnhem Land - on the land of the Yolngu people.
Yothu Yindi Foundation hosts the Garma Festival, and the foundation's chief executive is Denise Bowden.
"I think when those Yunupingu men first hatched the Garma idea, I do think they did understand it would be nationally significant. But maybe it needed some years to brew a little. Just imagine how incredibly difficult it is, given its very remote location and the logistics of barging supplies to Gove. And I am very pleased to say the 25th anniversary - it really is quite an honour."

Senior leaders in the Australian government say recognition of a Palestinian state will happen in the future.
Canada has joined the U-K and France in recognising the state of Palestine before a UN General Assembly vote in September.
Treasurer Jim Chalmers says Palestinian statehood is the best pathway out of the violence in Gaza.
"From an Australian point of view, recognition of the state of Palestine is a matter of when, not if. And so in that light, this progress, this momentum that we're seeing, is welcome, but it's also conditional. We need to make sure that there's no role for Hamas in any future leadership. We need to make sure that the hostages are released and so our support is conditional on meeting some of those overcoming some of those obstacles."

In golf, Australian Grace Kim is hoping for success at the Women's British Open in Wales over the next few days.
She is among nine Australians competing at the event, including Hannah Green and Minjee Lee - who wants to win the tournament.
Kim says she is well prepared.
"It is the last major of the season. But yeah, I am going to try and carry on the mentality that I had which was worry-free. And I know my game is good enough. My team has been put into a lot of effort into my own game. My physical, everything behind the scenes. So hopefully, we just showcase that."
