Australian police said they were hunting for a gunman on the run after three people were shot and killed in the country town of Lake Cargelligo, 450 kilometres (280 miles) west of Sydney.
“At this stage, police have identified an offender who is still at large,” said Andrew Holland, New South Wales Police Assistant Commissioner.
“We have a large search in the area currently underway. We are requesting that people remain indoors,” he told reporters.
The gunman is believed to have fled in a vehicle.
