Detectives from the Armed Crime Squad have this afternoon charged a man following the non-fatal shooting of a 36-year-old Dandenong man earlier this month.
A 22-year-old Seaford man was arrested in Melbourne's CBD just after midday.
He was subsequently interviewed by investigators and has been charged with aggravated home invasion, four counts of common law assault, affray, violent disorder and two counts of criminal damage.
The man will appear at Melbourne Magistrates' Court later today.
A 59-year-old Frankston North woman was also arrested by police last night.
She was interviewed and released pending further enquiries.
The activity follows a public appeal for information by police yesterday (Tuesday, 19 November) as part of their investigation into a linked home invasion and non-fatal shooting.
A 36-year-old man was shot during what police will allege was an altercation with a group of people at an address on Armata Crescent about 7.15pm on Monday, 4 November.
The Dandenong man was taken to hospital where he remains with life altering injuries.
