A white ute arrives at the end of a cul-de-sac, seemingly part of a prearranged encounter. Moments later, one man is seen dashing towards Albert Harmouche and firing a gun.
Subsequently, three individuals drag the 43-year-old from the ute, pulling him across the street and into a white car before making a hasty escape.
Although the specifics remain unclear, reports suggest Harmouche has been freed by his alleged captors.
It is still uncertain whether he has suffered any injuries or what his current condition might be.
Sources from 9News indicate that Harmouche is someone known to the police, though he doesn’t seem to have ties to any major criminal gangs.
Investigators are now delving into claims that the captors demanded a ransom amounting to a seven-figure sum.
