Default Man shot, Carrum Downs Vic

I just heard a man has been shot up the road from my place. They haven't found the gunman yet. If he is near the LTD the gunman will be dead too!

It's the school on the same street, near the small roundabout.

Yeah, was tops back there. Botany bush wasn't as good as pines bush but. We used to get over to the bowl over the back of frankston tip in pines bush and go nuts on our 80 and 250. I spent most my teenage years spitting out that sand...

You're sure about that....where do most of your shootings occur..in the burbs.

Hence the question what was the relationship between the shooter and the vic??

more than likely a drug relationship, a real good one too!

Seems this guy that was shot was also shot 2 years ago in similar circumstances & refused to co-operate with police back then! Maybe 3rd time lucky next attempt?
