One man has died and another has been seriously injured in a shooting outside a hotel in Sydney's inner-city. Police were called to The Harold Hotel on Ross Street in Forest Lodge about 6:40pm, following reports of a public place shooting. When officers arrived, they found two people had been shot multiple times by unknown people who fled in a car. Paramedics treated the two men at the scene, but one could not be saved.

A woman who was shot by police at Shepparton last year has been jailed. Cyra Misty Lee, 24, of Shepparton was shot by police on a street in July, while holding a knife. The Shepparton Magistrates' Court heard Lee had a tough childhood and wanted police to shoot her. Magistrate Terry Wilson summarised victim impact statements and sympathised with the police officers who attended the incident, including a pregnant female officer. He said police did not want to shoot Lee, but had no choice.
