A man fired at least 50 rounds at people and vehicles in a Sydney neighborhood before police arrested him on an unspecified recent date. Officers found the gunman barricaded inside a building and captured him after a two-hour standoff. Authorities recovered multiple firearms from the scene.
A man in his 50s sustained critical neck and chest wounds but survived surgery. Paramedics treated 16 people for minor injuries at the location, and hospitals admitted two for further care. Three others visited a police station for treatment of minor wounds.
The suspect suffered injuries when officers apprehended him. Police opened an investigation into his motives for the attack. Australia maintains strict firearm regulations after the 1996 Port Arthur massacre that killed 35 people.
