Geelong Shooting in the head and chest at a house in Fairbairn Drive, Corio,

Posted by Land Bike Wednesday, 5 November 2008

The man, aged in his 30s, was shot in the head and chest at a house in Fairbairn Drive, Corio, shortly after 10pm (AEDT) on Monday. The man, who does not live at the address, was flown to the Royal Melbourne Hospital in a critical condition, where his condition has stabilised. Police tonight charged two residents of the house, a 51-year-old man and a 27-year-old woman, with five counts of being a prohibited person in charge of a weapon and one count each of possessing cartridge ammunition.
The man appeared before a bail justice late yesterday and was remanded in custody to appear in the Geelong Magistrates Court today. The woman was bailed to appear in the same court on December 17. Police have ruled out any connection between Monday's shooting and the death of Torquay bikie Ross Brand, who was fatally wounded when he and three other men ambushed by a gunman in a twin-cab utility parked outside the Bandidos Geelong headquarters on October 22. Another man was wounded in the shooting, one of a series involving motorcycle gangs in the region in the past two years.
