新南威尔士州在两天内发生两起枪击事件。1周二,23岁大学生马可·塔皮亚在格伦阿尔卑斯家中被枪杀。2周三下午,40岁无犯罪记录的约书亚·麦克唐纳在梅里兰兹韦斯特遭枪击身亡。2警方相信这两起事件均为身份错认杀害。在梅里兰兹枪击案中,警方认为真正的目标是与阿拉梅迪内犯罪家族有关的莫什塔巴·哈菲兹,警方曾多次向其发出生命威胁警告,包括事件前数天。2
自去年年初以来,悉尼已发生6起疑似误认身份的枪击事件。1过去一年间,800人因帮派暴力被任务编队逮捕。1警察部长亚丝敏·卡特利表示"我们不会把街道交给有组织的犯罪分子",并否认暴力已"失控",声称警方拥有充足资源打击有组织犯罪帮派。1警察专员指出"大多数这些有组织犯罪是从海外策划的",并表示年轻人正被越来越多地招募从事致命犯罪。1为应对局势,警察局长表示将增加高能见度警察巡逻人数。2
Two people have been shot dead in Sydney within two days in what authorities believe are cases of mistaken identity linked to organized crime.12 A 23-year-old university student, Marco Tapia, was killed in his bed in Glen Alpines on Tuesday, followed by the shooting of 40-year-old Joshua McDonald in Merrylands West on Wednesday afternoon.12 McDonald, who had no criminal record and no connection to organized crime, was shot from the rear passenger door of what is believed to be a stolen Audi.2
Police believe McDonald was killed in a case of mistaken identity, with the intended target being Moshtaba Hafiz, who is associated with the Alameddine crime family.2 Police had issued multiple warnings to Hafiz about threats to his life, including several days before the shooting.2 Since the start of last year, there have been six suspected mistaken identity shootings in Sydney.1
Police Minister Yasmin Catley denied that gang violence is spiraling out of control, stating that "we will not hand the streets over to organized crime."1 She emphasized that police have sufficient resources to combat organized crime gangs.1 Police Commissioner Ian Lanyon indicated that increased high-visibility police patrols would be deployed in response.2 The commissioner confirmed both shootings are under investigation and stated that young people are increasingly being recruited to commit deadly crimes, often for minimal payment.1 He also indicated that "most of this organized crime is being orchestrated from overseas."1
Over the past year, 800 people have been arrested by a specialized task force in connection with gang violence.1 In May 2023, the death of 23-year-old plumber John Visacki led to the establishment of a 150-person task force known as Operation Falcon.2
