Two men charged after fatal shooting in Melbourne's west

Two men have been charged following a shooting in Derrimut earlier this month that resulted in the death of a 20-year-old man.

Emergency services were alerted after the 20-year-old from Tarneit was taken to St Albans Hospital at 2.35am on September 4.

He died in hospital shortly after from the injuries sustained in the shooting.

Following the incident, a 26-year-old Cranbourne man and a 25-year-old Narre Warren man were arrested after a pursuit on September 7.

The pair were questioned by police in relation to the Derrimut shooting and multiple other incidents, including a fatal shooting in Ivanhoe on September 2, a stabbing in Wyndham Vale on September 4, and an attempted carjacking in South Yarra that same day.

The Homicide Squad later charged the two men with murder in relation to the Derrimut shooting.

The 26-year-old man was also charged with the alleged stabbing.
