Man shot by police in Sydney allegedly pointed gun at officers
Police have shot a 21-year-old man in the stomach in Glen Alpine, in Sydney's south-west, after an alleged domestic violence incident. Officers attended a home around midday on Thursday after reports of threats, and police allege the man pointed a pistol at them. A woman at the house was taken to hospital in shock, while the man, who is in serious condition, was treated at the scene before being transported to hospital. A critical incident has been declared, a crime scene established, and an independent review by the Professional Standards Command, overseen by the LECC, will follow.
