In a shocking and terrifying incident, a young couple’s lives have been left hanging in the balance after their quiet suburban home in Park Ridge, Logan, was sprayed with approximately eight bullets in a drive-by shooting overnight.
The attack occurred just before 1:30 am on Friday, when emergency crews were called to a home on Baileys Lane to find an 18-year-old man and a 20-year-old woman injured. The man was treated by paramedics at the scene for a wound to his neck and rushed to the Princess Alexandra Hospital in a potentially life-threatening condition.
The woman was treated for a leg injury and taken to Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital in a non-life-threatening condition. Neighbors described the incident as “wild” and “unnerving,” with one resident saying, “People call Logan a bit of a rough area, but we’re pretty quiet here, so it’s a bit unnerving to wake up to.”
CCTV footage shows a motorbike turning a corner before the shots were fired, with the bike then speeding off down the road. Police remain at the scene, piecing together the circumstances surrounding the incident, and have declared a crime scene. Investigators believe there is no ongoing threat to the public.
The incident has left the community in shock, with neighbors expressing their disbelief and concern for the welfare of the two injured victims. As the investigation continues, the people of Park Ridge are left to grapple with the repercussions of this senseless and violent act.
