Police say a man asked for help at a pub after being shot in Sydney. The shooting was described as "outrageous".

Last night in Sydney's CBD, a man tragically lost his life in front of witnesses at a restaurant and pub. According to the police, he had stumbled there from a nearby service station where he had been shot. Emergency services were alerted to the scene on Baptist Street in Surry Hills after reports of gunshots around 7:45pm.

The victim, believed to be in his 30s, was found by NSW Police officers with a gunshot wound to his upper torso. Superintendent Andrew Garner stated that the man was sitting alone in his car at the service station when he was shot. It is suspected that the man had links to organized crime, as confirmed by Garner.

The shocking incident took place in full view of the public, which Garner described as "outrageous." He expressed his disgust at the blatant disregard for the safety of those around the area. The police are determined to bring the perpetrator(s) to justice, with Garner issuing a warning, "We're coming for you."

Witnesses at the scene reported hearing four to five gunshots and saw a man wearing a balaclava opening fire. Despite efforts by NSW Ambulance paramedics to save the man's life, he succumbed to his injuries on Bathurst Street, in front of people at the pub and restaurant.

Shortly after, emergency services were called to another incident on Kensington Road in Kensington, where a car was on fire. Upon arrival, the police discovered a Porsche engulfed in flames. As a result, Cleveland Street was closed for the night and reopened at 7am.

Preliminary investigations suggest a connection between the two incidents. The police are now on the hunt for the alleged gunman, and they believe there may be more than one person involved. A crime scene has been established, and both local detectives and members of the state homicide squad are working tirelessly to gather more information.

A report will be prepared for the Coroner, and the police are urging anyone with information to come forward and contact Crime Stoppers.
