Fourth person charged over Dubbo shooting, NSW

Just before 11pm on Tuesday 23 November 2021, emergency services were called to a house on Baird Street, Dubbo, due to concerns for the occupant’s welfare.

A 34-year-old man was found inside the home with a gunshot wound to his leg, wound to his face and lacerations to his arms.

Police were told two people wearing face coverings, entered the home and assaulted the man before fleeing the scene.
