Speaking on Monday morning, Acting Assistant Commissioner Trent King described the shooting as “horrific” and “almost unprecedented in Sydney”.

He said police would seek to speak to the man “at an appropriate time”, and would probe how he may have acquired the firearm and ammunition.

Looks like this offender didn't have a license guns were unregistered.

To buy ammo in NSW you need to show registration papers proving you have a legal firearm that requires that specific ammo.

Some reports say it was a semi auto due to rapid fire.

If the guns we’re licensed we’d know by now as Firearms Registry would have all the details.

Sydney father Artemios Mintzas identified as alleged Croydon Park gunman
06 / 10 / 2025

The Greek Herald

The man accused of opening fire on pedestrians, drivers and officers in Sydney’s inner west has been identified as 60-year-old Artemios Mintzas.

Mintzas, who lived alone in a Croydon Park apartment, allegedly fired dozens of high-calibre rounds from his window on Sunday evening, injuring 16 people and striking several cars, including a police vehicle.

He was arrested after a two-hour siege, treated for minor injuries, and is now in police custody awaiting firearm charges.

Acting Superintendent Stephen Parry said the operation was “highly dangerous” and praised officers for their swift response, adding it was “incredible nobody was killed”.

Mintzas, a Sydney Trains employee and father of two, has no known criminal record or links to organised crime or terrorism. Detectives are investigating his motive and how he obtained the .30-calibre rifle used in the attack.

Premier Chris Minns condemned the violence, calling it unacceptable in NSW.
