Two women have been shot dead inside a car in southwest Sydney.
Emergency services were called to Weston Street in Revesby about 8.50pm on Saturday night amid reports of a double shooting.
They found a 48-year-old woman with critical injuries. She could not be revived and died at the scene.
A younger woman, aged 36, was rushed to Liverpool Hospital in a critical condition but also died from her injuries.
There were two other occupants inside the car – a man and a woman. Neither were physically injured in the attack.
Police have since launched an investigation into the shooting.
A car was found burnt out in the nearby suburb of Panania but police are still working to establish whether there is a link between the two incidents.
Revesby is in the heart of an ongoing gangland war in Sydney.
It’s not yet clear whether the latest two shootings were gang related, but police will explore all possible lines of inquiry.
Multiple crime scenes have been established throughout the area with the Homicide Squad and local area command working together to investigate.
Any person with information, dashcam or CCTV is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
