A 29-year-old man is in a serious condition in hospital after he was shot outside a house in Sydney's south-west on Sunday in what is believed to be a targeted attack.
Emergency services were called to Torrens Street in Canley Vale about 3.40pm on Sunday after reports that shots had been fired.
NSW Ambulance said the man had suffered a single gunshot wound to his right hip.
Witness Elsie Davis told Seven News that the victim had "blood all over his arms and shirt and was holding on to the right side of him".
"Blood was just pouring, I was shaking up and didn't know what to think," she said.
The man was taken to Liverpool Hospital in a serious condition.
Police said several men were assisting them with their inquiries and they were not looking for anyone else of interest.
Following the shooting, Cabramatta police established a number of crimes scenes in the Canley Vale area. Forensic officers are examining the scene.
The circumstances surrounding the incident are still unknown.
Police are urging any witnesses, or anyone who may have seen or heard anything in the area at the time of the incident, to contact Crime Stoppers.
