A 40-year-old man has been shot dead outside a gym in Sydney’s south-west.

Emergency services were called to Carlingford Street, Sefton, following reports of a shooting just after 6.30am on Thursday, NSW Police said in a statement.

Paramedics treated the man for a gunshot wound, but despite their efforts he died at the scene.

There are reports the man was sitting in a car outside the gym when he was shot at from a passing car.

A man who was nearby says he heard a series of shots he initially thought was a car backfiring.

“As I heard a car speed off there was another series of bangs,” he told Sydney radio 2GB.

“Within minutes there was a load of ambulances, police everywhere, and then we saw a man on the ground, not in a good way.”

A crime scene has been established, with specialist forensic officers investigating, along with the State Crime Command’s Homicide Squad.
