Police in Melbourne have discovered what they believe are explosives
after the arrests of two members of the Comancheros outlaw
motorcycle gang.

gang, and another gang member, aged 24, were arrested by Taskforce
Echo detectives in raids at Dandenong and Narre Warren earlier this

The pair are wanted in relation to a shooting in High Street,
Preston on October 24 in which a large number of shots were fired
inside a restaurant at around 3:00am.

and a quantity of what is believed to be explosives in a vehicle at
the Narre Warren address.
