SYDNEY, Oct 8 — Australian police foiled an alleged organised crime hit near a Sydney daycare facility, the force said today.
New South Wales police swooped in on two cars after learning the men were preparing to carry out the alleged killing in Revesby, a suburb in the city’s south-west, yesterday.
Police stopped two cars and arrested the men, finding two firearms, balaclavas, bodyworn cameras and jerry cans containing fuel during a search.
A third firearm was also located during subsequent searches of vehicles and premises allegedly linked to the men.
Footage from yesterday showed the two cars littered with bullet holes.
One witness, who did not wish to be named, told Australia’s Channel Nine he heard the gunshots and went to investigate.
“I started walking out of my house and I heard some more gunshots and then cars were swerving,” he said.
Police Assistant Commissioner Scott Cook said authorities had been investigating a transnational crime network “believed to be involved in multiple conspiracies to murder” for several weeks.
The victim had criminal links and was targeted due to a breakdown in relationships within the syndicate, he said.
The men came “pretty close” to carrying out the hit, Cook said.
The police will allege the trio of men did not know the victim but were hired by the crime syndicate.
“The fact that this group were prepared to kill an individual in a location where so much collateral damage would have been caused is a significant concern,” he said.
“These individuals were being watched, and we moved at the right moment.”
The men have been charged with a string of offences, including conspiracy to commit murder and participating in a criminal group. The trio were refused bail and will appear in court Wednesday.
