Here's what you need to know this morning.
Police search for firearm used in South-Western Sydney shooting
Three people have been charged over a suspected shooting at Roselands in Sydney's south west.
Police were called to a unit block on Canterbury Road shortly after 10:30pm after several people reported hearing a gunshot fired.
A man aged in his thirties was taken to hospital with a suspected gunshot wound to his hand.
Two women have been charged with concealing a serious indictable offence and will face court today.
A 25-year-old man has been charged with concealing a knife and being armed with intent.
He is due to face court in June.
A police spokesperson said officers were trying to find the firearm.
A police source told ABC News the incident was not connected to a recent string of gangland shootings.
Flu shot should be free, says retail union
Unions in the retail and fast food sectors have urged the NSW Government to make the flu vaccine free for everyone, as a big spike in cases threatens to hit those industries hard.
It comes as Health Minister Brad Hazzard told reporters at a press conference on Tuesday that the state had been hit "harder and earlier" by the flu than it had for many years, which was putting pressure on the health system.
Mr Hazzard said he was considering offering free flu vaccines, as Queensland has done already.
Bernie Smith from the union representing retail, warehouse and fast food workers said it was a good move and believed health and retail workers should be a priority.
He said it was time to act.
"We are concerned about what will come in the next few weeks if we don't take action now," Shop, Distributive and Allied Employees' Association secretary Mr Smith said.
"Free vaccination is a good thing. It's good for the worker and it's actually good for the community because retail workers come into contact with a couple of hundred people every day that they serve in their shops."
Reward for information on teen's disappearance increased to $1 million
The reward for information that could solve the suspected murder of Lake Macquarie teenager Gordana Kotevski has been increased to $1 million.
The 16-year-old was last seen being forced into a vehicle on Powell Street, Charlestown, while walking from Charlestown Square Shopping Centre to her aunt's home on the same road about 9pm on Thursday, 24 November 1994.
State Coroner in 2003, John Abernethy, found the teenager had most likely died as a result of foul play.
The NSW Government and the NSW Police Force have increased the reward to hopefully encourage someone who knows something to come forward.
Gilmore count remains 'ridiculously tight', says candidate
Former NSW Government frontbencher, Andrew Constance, said the vote count between him and the ALP's candidate in the south coast seat of Gilmore remains "ridiculously tight".
According to the Australian Electoral Commission, Mr Constance is just in front but the ABC's election analyst Antony Green believes Labor's Fiona Phillips has edged ahead.
Mr Constance has told the ABC it was certainly on a knife-edge.
"I think there's about 2,000 postal votes still to go and then probably provisional and absentee votes are another 13 or 14 hundred so there's a fair bit of counting to go," Mr Constance said.
"It's the community decision at the end of the day and you've just got to accept the ballot box outcome which at this stage is so ridiculously tight, it's not funny."
Mr Constance said the upsets in seats including Fowler and those won by the so-called teal independents, showed the importance of local communities in determining election outcomes.
"I think that clearly demonstrates that people will support people who are going to stick up for them and fight for them," Mr Constance said.
He continued: "That's what I've always done for the 20 years, or nearly 20 years, I was in state politics and it remains to be seen if I'll get a chance federally but we'll wait and see."
Police confident of shattering drug supply gang, accused of violence
Senior police say they are confident they have dismantled an entire "dial a dealer" drug supply operation allegedly run by the notorious Alameddine family.
It comes after a year-long undercover operation culminating in raids across South-Western Sydney yesterday morning, in which 18 people were arrested.
The Alameddines have been linked to the deadly gang conflict that has spilled onto the city's streets in recent weeks and months.
Police Commissioner Karen Webb said she was confident authorities had "cut the head off the snake" with the arrests.
"The recent gang-related violence that's been plaguing Sydney stems directly from the battle for control of these drug markets and their profits. all of those arrested displayed considerable wealth and assets which we allege were generated entirely through the profit of drugs."
