Two Wyndham men were arrested on Wednesday in relation to a shooting in Middle Park last month.
On September 6, police executed six search warrants at properties in Tarneit, Truganina, Albion and South Melbourne in relation to the non-fatal shooting on August 17.
Police seized a white Hyundai suspected of being used by those involved in the incident where a 76-year-old man was shot at his Middle Park home.
Emergency services were called to the Cantebury Road property after reports the man was injured when he answered a knock to his front door about 7.50pm.
He sustained a gunshot to his lower body and was treated in hospital for non-life threatening injuries.
Two women inside the property at the time, a 72-year-old and a 39-year-old, were not physically injured during the incident.
A 24-year-old Tarneit man was arrested and is expected to be charged with intentionally causing serious injury, possessing a prohibited firearm and related offences.
He was due to face the Melbourne Magistrates Court on Wednesday afternoon.
A 23-year-old Werribee man was also arrested but is expected to be released pending further enquiries.
The investigation into the incident remains ongoing.
