Okay, good afternoon.

Task Force Falcon detectives were charged two people following shooting into a premises in Punchbowl on the weekend.
7
About 2.20pm on Saturday the 6th of June, multiple shots were fired from a vehicle into a premises on Canterbury Road Punchbowl.
8
It is believed that a semi-automatic rifle was used.
9
The premises were unoccupied and no persons were injured.
10
A short time later police were called to Gillian Place Punchbowl and found an SUV on fire at that location.
11
This was the vehicle that was used in this offence.
12
Following extensive inquiries by Task Force Falcon, a 17 year old boy was stopped in a motor vehicle on Saturday,
13
sorry yesterday, and he was charged with offences related to that shooting.
14
He was charged with firearm at a dwelling for organised criminal activity,
15
damaged property by fire, be carried in conveyance without consent of owner and participate in a criminal group
16
and contribute to criminal activity.
17
We allege that this 17 year old male was the person who fired close to 30 rounds from
18
that vehicle on Saturday the 6th of June.
19
From about 6pm yesterday on Monday Task Force Falcon with the assistance of public order squad
20
and Raptors squad executed search warrants at Airds
21
and Busby where police seized ammunition and also a magazine that we allege is from an assault rifle.
22
A 23-year-old man was arrested at the Busby residence
23
and he was charged with fire firearm at a dwelling disregarding the safety of the public,
24
participate in a criminal group and contribute to criminal activity.
25
We allege a 23-year-old assisted those involved in the shooting pre and post the offence.
26
The location at Punchbowl is a reception centre
27
that was going to host a wake for Lorenzo Lamalu on
28
Saturday the 6th of June though this event was cancelled prior to commencing.
29
Those that were to attend the wake were obviously the intended targets of this shooting due to their association with Mr Lamalu.
30
Was the event cancelled because they somehow knew there might be an attack or was it cancelled?
31
Was it just dumb luck that it got moved?
32
Yeah, the organiser, in consultation with the police, in consultation with the people that are going to hold the event, decided that the risk was too great for it to go ahead.
33
The hero of the shooting surfaced afterwards.
34
The main committee was speaking in this video.
35
Did this help police identify the issue that he requested?
36
There was a number of factors that assisted us in arresting those people footage
37
which we've seen shows if anything a total disregard for public safety.
38
They were laughing throughout, close to 30 rounds were shot in this premises, they had no indication if it was occupied or not.
39
It was the great investigative work by task force for our detectives
40
that led to the arrest of these two persons and there are still more to be arrested for this offence.
41
Do you believe these two people have no links to one criminal organisation
42
or if they were hired to carry this out by somebody else?
43
Yeah, we were alleged they were hired to conduct this shooting.
44
They were, for want of a better term, contract criminals.
45
They were conducting this violent and dangerous act for monetary gain.
46
We know Mr Lamala who was associated with the Pokemon Cartel.
47
Do we know who organised this hit on this report?
48
They're obviously in conflict with with other organised crime networks.
49
Specifically, who was responsible for this is still to be determined and still part of the investigation.
50
Obviously, they've had quite a public dispute with the Al-Madins, many of whom the most senior are overseas in Lebanon, some recently going over there.
51
How difficult does that make really cutting their head off this thing?
52
It is a challenge.
53
It's always difficult when part of the criminal activity and the organising, the facilitation is by people that are offshore.
54
Though, as can be seen in this instance, those that were responsible were arrested within a day.
55
Two people before the courts, their bail refused, and there's another offender that we're looking for, which we will arrest soon.
56
You've obviously worked in gangland crime for a long time.
57
How common is it to see a funeral be targeted by a drive-by shooting?
58
You can see the level of disregard that's happened recently where relatives of organised crime network figures have been shot.
59
They've shot in the homes of relatives, they've shot into the homes of partners.
60
There's been close calls with children being shot.
61
activity in public areas so for them to attend a location like this
62
and fire indiscriminately at a location
63
that may have been occupied is consistent with the total disregard they've shown recently
64
and the lack of concern they have for the public.
65
You know we have juveniles as in this case a 17
66
year old has been arrested for firing close to 30 rounds into these premises.
67
No concern if anyone was in there there could have been multiple fatalities
68
so I'm not surprised that they have done this now.
69
On that point as well, they filmed their own crime and then posted it online themselves as our understanding.
70
This kind of posting and boasting, is that also new escalation in the brazenness of the behaviour of these criminals?
71
I think it shows you know
72
that the significance of social media at this point of time
73
where they they believe they can post their activities without it being traced back to them.
74
That's obviously also authenticates what they've done to whoever's paying them the money to commit these acts.
75
It's there for them to review and see that it's actually been conducted.
76
And it also is a boast yes
77
but you know these these means weren't available 15 20 years ago
78
but they are now so they utilize that to promote what they've done
79
the funeral did go ahead on Sunday were there any security
80
scares the police got on top of before it happened? no there was a major police presence there
81
and there were no issues at all through the funeral
82
so is it alleged that the 23 year old was then the driver of the vehicle and the 17 year old
83
You already clarified he's the one who was shooting the gun.
84
Or was the 23-year-old the driver?
85
No, the 17-year-old was the shooter.
86
And the 23-year-old, we allege, assisted him and another person before the incident and after the incident.
87
He assisted them through providing the means to commit this act and was fully aware of what happened.
88
That's why he's been charged with the same offence.
89
So he's still looking for, theoretically, the driver of that car?
90
That's correct.
91
And was there a third person filming as well?
92
Was it three total at the car?
93
Two in the car, we allege.
94
Two in the car.
95
Yeah, the driver who filmed the incident and the person who was doing the shooting who were arrested.
96
You mentioned that you believe the people that were meant to be inside the funeral at the time were the targets.
97
I know it's hard to speak this early on, but do we think that this was to hurt them or to send a message to whoever's left within that cartel?
98
Do you think the intention was to kill people or to send such a big public message?
99
It would be safe to assume that if you're firing 30 rounds into a building,
100
there's every probability that you're going to kill or seriously hurt somebody.
101
I think that was the intention, that they were going to cause harm, but it also does send a message whether they,
102
you know, unfortunately if they do cause significant harm or they in harm or they strike someone or they don't, it still sends the message.
103
But you'd have to think
104
that 30 rounds in the premises they thought was occupied was
105
the intention to cause a great deal of harm to those inside.
