A 35-year-old man has been treated for a gunshot wound in hospital following a scuffle at a home in Melbourne's north-west yesterday.
Police said a number of people attended a home on Omar Street in Maidstone about 4.30pm, where they allegedly threatened the occupant of the house.
It's understood a "scuffle ensued" and the firearm was discharged, according to police.
A 35-year-old Braybrook man self-presented to hospital shortly after with a suspected gunshot wound to his upper body.
There were no other injuries reported.
Four people were arrested at the scene including a 29-year-old man and woman, a 34-year-old man and a 35-year-old man, who have been released pending further enquiries.
Police believe the incident was targeted and the investigation remains ongoing.
