The 17-year-old boy was reportedly shot in South Granville, western Sydney, at about 1.40pm on Sunday afternoon.

He suffered a gunshot wound to the shoulder and was transferred to Westmead Hospital.

The 17-year-old is understood to be in a stable condition.

Officers from Cumberland Police Area Command have established a crime scene on Clyde Street.

An investigation of the circumstances surrounding the shooting is ongoing. 

NSW Police have urged anyone with information about the incident to contact Crime Stoppers.   

The attack comes after a series of shootings across Sydney’s west. 

Bikie-turned-rapper John ‘Big Kash’ Lavulo, 33, was shot in the arm driving out of his apartment block at Warwick Farm on August 8. 

Police arrested fellow rapper Thomas ‘Masi Rooc’ Vandermade, 29, after a month long manhunt in September.

Another 22-year-old man was arrested in relation to the shooting on Tuesday.   

Samer Marcus, 45, a senior member of notorious Assyrian gang DLASTHR, was shot in the head from close range in his home at Denham Court on Friday, November 6. 

The recent attack is the second time the DLASTHR (The Last Hour) member has been shot this year.

In June the gangster was shot in the face after a confrontation with another man.  

Marcus’ shooting came at a time of heightened concern over gang behaviour in the western suburbs of Sydney.

The shooting death of Mejid Hamzy, 44, has sparked fears of a gangland war in Sydney’s west, where Middle Eastern crime gangs have long run rampant.

Hamzy was gunned down in the driveway of his home at Condell Park at 7.30am on Monday, October 17 by two balaclava-clad gunmen.

Police believe he may have been responsible for several assassinations including the 2016 death of Hamad ‘The Executioner’ Assaad, and that his murder is definitely part of a gang-related attack.  

Samer Marcus (pictured), senior member of the notorious Assyrian gang DLASTHR, is unlikely to ever walk again after being shot in an attempted assassination in early November

Volunteers book hotel room for homeless man with SingapoRediscovers vouchers

NewsColony Volunteers book hotel room for homeless man with SingapoRediscovers vouchers © The Independent Singapore Singapore — A group of volunteers from the Mummy Yummy Singapore welfare organisation donated their SingapoRediscovers Vouchers to book a hotel room for a homeless man. The man, who was identified as Jayden, did not have a place to live while waiting for the Housing Board (HDB) to allocate him a rental flat. In a Facebook post on Mummy Yummy Singapore’s page on Wednesday (Dec 16), the volunteers said: “We used our $100 Rediscover Singapore vouchers to redeem hotel stay for him and successfully booked 9 days worth of stay at 3 days per voucher.” They added that they were unable to book a longer stay because of higher hotel rates over Christmas and New Year. The volunteers hoped that they would be able to bridge Jayden’s stay until he got a flat. “Thanks our government for giving us these vouchers which in return we can put them to good use for people in need,” th...

Disabled people are still vulnerable, even as COVID-19 normalizes their ‘special’ needs

Disabled people are still vulnerable, even as COVID-19 normalizes their ‘special’ needs NewsColony Perhaps it’s appropriate that public notices of the COVID-19 crisis began as an ableist cruelty. Health officials assured the nation that only the elderly and those with chronic health conditions would be seriously affected; most Americans (i.e., the normal people) would have only mild symptoms and be fine. x A friendly reminder: people who will be high-risk patients if we get coronavirus can hear you when you reassure everyone we’re the only ones who might die. — Alexandra Brodsky (@azbrodsky) February 29, 2020 Soon after the announcement of those assurances, the likelihood of high-risk people surviving was further limited by the people more likely to be fine. Shopping frenzies cleared stores of essential supplies needed everyday by many disabled people, like thermometers, hand wipes, masks, and IV infusion supplies. Accustomed to their needs ...
