SYDNEY: Australian police are hunting a gunman who shot dead two officers and wounded another on Tuesday (Aug 26) as they tried to serve a warrant for historical sex abuse allegations to a man at a rural property in the state of Victoria, local media said.
In a statement on social media, Victoria police said they were attending an active incident in the alpine town of Porepunkah, about 300km (186 miles) north-east of the city of Melbourne, and asked people to avoid the area.
