The ABC can confirm police were executing a warrant for historical sex offences at a property near Porepunkah when the shooting began.

Police believe the shooter identifies as a "sovereign citizen",

Sovereign citizens believe the government is illegitimate and use pseudo-law — a collection of legal-sounding concepts that have no basis in actual law — to target government institutions.

The shooter remains on the run.

I have a suspicion they will struggle to take this one alive. Which is a pity, he deserves to chill in a cage.
