Statement From The Premier

In Victoria, community safety comes first.

What we have seen at Northland Shopping Centre this afternoon is appalling and I condemn it.

I want to thank Victoria Police, our first responders and the shop owners, staff and the public who were all incredibly brave responding to this incident.

Victoria Police has advised this was a targeted attack and have taken two people into custody. The investigation is ongoing.

Anyone with any information should contact Crimestoppers on 1800 333 000.
