Detectives from the Armed Crime Squad have charged a man following a non-fatal shooting in Bayswater earlier in November.
A 30-year-old Mooroolbark man was arrested on Wednesday evening and interviewed by investigators.
He has since been charged with intentionally causing serious injury, reckless conduct endangering life, and being a prohibited person in possession of a firearm.
Police believe the parties involved are known to each other.
Anyone with information about illicit firearm activity is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or make a confidential report at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au
