An 11-year-old boy is taken to hospital in serious condition after being shot in the face and neck at a home in Norwest, in Sydney’s north-west. Emergency services respond to reports of a shooting at around 5pm on Monday.
Police say five other people were inside the house at the time and were not injured. Several outlets describe the setting as an apartment or “luxury apartment complex,” while others refer to it more generally as a home or property. All reports focus on the boy’s injuries and his hospital condition, noting that his case is serious or critical.
The coverage does not, in these accounts, identify a suspect or provide details on the circumstances leading up to the shooting. The common element across outlets is the location in Norwest, the time of the incident, the presence of other people in the residence, and the boy’s serious facial and neck injuries.
