Investigators believe that two 2017 killings related to the Comanchero bikie gang were innocent young men who were mistakenly killed, saying the attacks resulted from “callous stupidity” and “utter incompetence” after a gunman went to the wrong house.
Police believe Mr Tuivasa, known to his friends and family as âSioâ, may have been the victim of a case of mistaken identity in a community dispute or a feud between bikie gangs when he was shot earlier this year.
Mr Tuivasa, from Deer Park, was standing outside the All Star Lounge on Westwood Drive with a group of people when a Toyota Hilux SR5 ute pulled up just before midnight on February 27, according to investigators.
One of the two people in the ute called out to the group in Tongan to get their attention before pulling out a gun and firing four rounds from the passenger-side window, hitting Mr Tuivasa and another 24-year-old man from Endeavour Hills, police said.
