Earlier this month, a fatal shooting occurred in Sydney, Australia, and local police have identified a third suspect in his 20s, who is reportedly of Korean descent.

According to Yonhap News Agency, on the 25th (local time), Australian public broadcaster SBS reported that New South Wales (NSW) Police had arrested a third suspect, a 21-year-old man identified as A, in connection with the fatal shooting that took place in the Merrylands area of western Sydney earlier this month. A is a Korean man who faces charges including murder and participation in a criminal organization.

A is accused of being involved in a shooting incident that occurred at a residence in Merrylands at approximately 3:15 p.m. on the 2nd of this month. A man in his 40s who suffered gunshot wounds received emergency medical care from paramedics at the scene, but ultimately succumbed to his injuries and died at the location.

The NSW Police believe that A aided the shooter’s movements before and after the incident and acted as an accomplice.

Last week, a 28-year-old woman, identified as C, was arrested during a follow-up investigation on charges of aiding and abetting murder and participation in a criminal organization. C is accused of acting as a lookout and assisting the shooter in fleeing the scene.

The NSW Police are also expanding their investigation to consider the possibility that the suspects planned the crime but may have targeted the victim by mistake.
