Gunfire Erupts at Logan Boxing Event, Wounding Four

Police in Queensland are investigating a shooting that left four people injured outside a boxing event south of Brisbane. Authorities were alerted to the incident at 8.15pm on October 24, 2026, regarding shots fired from a vehicle at a licensed venue in Loganholme. Emergency services responded to the scene where the four victims sustained injuries.

According to law enforcement officials, a vehicle was observed leaving the area immediately after the shots were reported. The four injured individuals were transported to a medical facility where their conditions are currently being evaluated. Queensland police deputy commander Chris Stream addressed the incident on the Today show, labeling the situation as a confrontation involving gunshot wounds.

The venue, Fitzys Loganholme on Bryants Road, was the designated location for the Logan City Titles Fight Night, which was scheduled to take place on that Saturday. Organizers released a statement via social media on the morning of October 25 regarding the shooting.

The statement, issued by Logan City Titles, expressed sorrow over the events. The group described the evening as a gathering meant to highlight community skills and local talent within the ring. They added that such occurrences have no place in the boxing community or the broader public.

Local officials have reacted with alarm following the violence. Logan mayor Jon Raven reported that residents in the area are frightened by the development. He stated that such an event has never occurred in Logan before and is sending a shockwave through the region.

The mayor extended his thoughts to those affected by the shooting, including the victims, the venue's staff, and the attendees. He noted that he has attended similar boxing events in the past and observed them to be family-friendly gatherings where many children were present.

Raven stated that the impact of the shooting will affect those involved for the rest of their lives. He also emphasized the specific purpose of the event, which was organized to help steer children away from violence. The mayor explained that the organizer intends to empower and reconnect young people who may be struggling.

The mayor expressed sympathy for the event's organizer, noting that they would be devastated by the outcome. The shooting represents the exact opposite of what the organizer aims to achieve through these gatherings. Police have confirmed that the offenders remain at large.

Despite the ongoing search for the suspects, authorities do not believe there is a continuing threat to public safety. Law enforcement officials have urged anyone with information regarding the shooting to contact them immediately.
