Paramedics treated the man’s gunshot wound, and he was taken to hospital for further treatment.
His injuries are non-life-threatening.
At 10.15pm, emergency services were called to a car fire on Kindlebark Close, in the nearby suburb of Claremont Meadows.
The fire was extinguished and police have established two crime scenes.
