Lennard Kirby was shot several times in the chest at a house in the southern suburb of Jandakot yesterday afternoon. Assistant Police Commissioner Wayne Gregson says the incident was drug-related and not a confrontation between rival gangs.The other man shot was an associate of the Gypsy Jokers, Alexandro Scilio, who also has a history of drug offences.Both men were at the house in Peppworth Place when a group of men arrived by car and Kirby and Scilio were shot after an altercation.Associates took the injured men to the St John of God hospital in Murdoch in the back of a ute.
Assistant Commissioner Gregson says both victims are refusing the cooperate with police."At this stage their condition is noted I believe as stable," he said.
"Kirby's a little more serious than Scilio and we will be talking to them again, but as often the case with these types of people they are uncooperative." Police are looking for a blue Suburu Impreza they believe was used by the group responsible for the shooting. It was last seen speeding north on the Kwinana Freeway.

Gypsy Jokers two men have been shot and wounded, one seriously,

Police would not confirm ABC TV reports that both victims were connected to the Gypsy Jokers bikie gang. Two men have been shot and wounded, one seriously, in an incident in Perth's south reportedly linked to the Gypsy Jokers.Police spokesman Sergeant Graham Clifford said a man in his 40s and another in his late 30s, had both suffered shotgun wounds. "One of them could be described as having minor wounds and his injuries are not life threatening," Sgt Clifford said. "The other has more serious wounds."ABC TV reported that one of the men was shot in the chest and the other in the arm. Sgt Clifford said the shooting occurred about 4.15pm (WST) at a house in Jandakot, a semi-rural southern suburb of Perth which is characterised by one to two-hectare properties, such as hobby farms. He said the Peppworth St home was close to an industrial area in the vicinity of Jandakot Airport. The two men had been dropped off at Murdoch Hospital by a "third party" following the shooting and were later transferred to another hospital, he said. "I can't confirm any bikie gangs were involved," Sgt Clifford said. "Inquiries are under way to find a third party involved, but there's no concern for the general public because the matter appears to have been between those people. "But it's early days and the investigation will follow the normal line of inquiry."
