ACT Policing has executed four search warrants in relation to a shooting in Banks earlier last month.

About 12am on Tuesday, 8 July 2025, two men invaded a residence in Banks before shooting a male occupant in the leg.

Following enquiries, officers executed simultaneous search warrants last Thursday morning (24 July 2025) at a residence in Harrison and across three commercial premises in Mitchell.

During the search warrants multiple items were seized including electronic devices, drugs and two vehicles.

No arrests have been made, and the matter remains as an ongoing investigation.

At this time police cannot link a reason for the victim to be targeted, believing that the incident was a case of mistaken identity.

Anyone with information about the shooting is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000, or via the Crime Stoppers ACT website.  Please quote 8099468. Information can be provided anonymously.
