 Trung LUU (Western Metropolitan) (12:49): (1926) My question is for the Minister for Police and relates to the alarming increase in the number of drive-by shootings, particularly in my electorate of Western Metropolitan Region. So I ask: can the minister please update my constituents? What is the Allan government doing to address this increase in firearm-related crime? In recent weeks, there have been reports of shots being fired into a home in Werribee, merely missing occupants while they were sleeping, and another incident where several shots were fired into the front windows of a bedroom. Fortunately, those who were at home were not injured. These things are occurring far too frequently. Victorians are scared and my constituents raise this matter with me regularly, demanding more action from the government. I look forward to the minister’s response on what specific actions are being taken to mitigate this concerning trend of gun-related violence.
