QUEENSLAND police have revealed a man who drove to a Brisbane home for help after being shot several times is a member of a notorious outlaw motorcycle gang.
Detectives are still searching for two gunmen involved in separate incidents in Brisbane and on the Gold Coast.
A 24-year-old man has been arrested after allegedly shooting his victim in the mouth during an incident in Brisbane's south on Thursday afternoon.
Deputy Commissioner Ross Barnett said the other two unsolved shootings that followed were a high priority.
"The community can be rest assured that we will aggressively pursue all lines of inquiry," he told reporters on Friday.
Mr Barnett said he understood the community was concerned about the shootings, but their timings gave a false impression that there was a major problem with gun-related violence.
"The fact is, in the last incidents, at this stage there is absolutely no link," he said.
He'd earlier told ABC radio that although gun-related crime rates were falling in Queensland, illegal firearms were still available to people with enough money and the right connections.
The latest incident involved a man driving to a home in Banyo in Brisbane's north after being shot in the hip, arm and shoulder at an unknown location.
Ambulance officers were called to the house just before 3am (AEST) on Friday.
Detectives are yet to interview the man, who remains in hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
Police are also hunting for a gunman who shot another man in the leg as he loaded motorbikes onto his ute in the northern Gold Coast suburb of Pimpama on Thursday afternoon.
The 39-year-old was approached by a stranger who demanded his car keys.
When the victim refused, he was shot in the leg and the offender fled into bushland.
The victim is recovering in Gold Coast Hospital.
In the first of the three shootings, a man was shot in the mouth in a south Brisbane street on Thursday afternoon.
The 31-year-old is recovering in hospital after the incident at Upper Mount Gravatt.
A 24-year-old man was charged overnight with attempted murder and unlawful possession of a weapon. He's due to face the Holland Park Magistrates Court on Friday.
A 44-year-old woman is assisting police with their inquiries.
