A man has been shot dead in Western Sydney in what is believed to be the latest escalation in gangland violence.
Emergency services were called to Merrylands West, about 3:15pm after reports a man had been shot in the driveway of a home.
The man, believed by police to be in his 30s, was treated by NSW Ambulance paramedics for gunshot wounds but died at the scene.
It is the second deadly suspected underworld shooting this week, coming a day after university student Marco Tapia was killed inside his Glen Alpine home.
