A lone police officer stationed nearby responded swiftly upon hearing what sounded like one or two gunshots piercing the quiet. Arriving at the scene, the officer discovered a man, identified as Good, with a devastating gunshot wound to the head.

Despite the best efforts of emergency services to save him, Good succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene, marking a grim turn of events in the heart of the community.

The investigation took a significant step forward when authorities detained a 21-year-old man from Heidelberg at Melbourne Airport in the early hours of the morning. Following an extensive interview, the suspect was formally charged with one count of murder, bringing a crucial development to the case.
