Police have ruled out a link between two "incredibly reckless" shootings in Sydney's west overnight, which they believe may have been targeted. A 26-year-old man was shot in the legs in a drive-by attack while walking along O'Connor Street in Guildford at around 11pm last night.
Police found him in a driveway and provided first aid treatment before paramedics arrived and took him to hospital in a stable condition. 
Superintendent Simon Glasser said the victim was known to police. (Nine)Superintendent Simon Glasser said the victim was known to police for "low-level crime" before the alleged shooting. "Police have reason to believe it was a targeted attack," Glasser said.
"The man who was shot is currently in surgery and police are yet to speak with him."
Officers learned he had been shot by gunmen firing from a dark-coloured hatchback, with bullets striking him in the right calf and left foot, before the vehicle sped away. Then at 11.50pm, shots were fired into a home at nearby O'Neill Street in Guildford, from a dark grey Hyundai i30 before it drove off.
Three bullets hit a window in the property, but the occupants were uninjured.
Police set up crime scenes at both locations after discovering several fired cartridge cases, but this morning said there was no confirmed link between the two incidents and the two cars involved.
Police are investigating two western Sydney shootings that happened within an hour. (Nine)Glasser said that the previous occupants of the Guildford home were known to police.
"Police believe that may have been a targeted attack as well," Glasser said.
Glasser added that while the two incidents are not believed to be linked, a shooting in Merrylands the night prior saw a similar car to the one involved in the Guildford shooting used in that incident.
Officers later found two burned-out cars, including a Toyota Corolla, in the driveways of homes in Greenacre in Sydney's west, which are being treated as suspicious.
"At this time, no links between have been established between the fires, and no links have been identified between these fires and two separate shootings which occurred in Guildford earlier in the night," a police statement said.
"This is incredibly reckless behaviour, the offenders have a complete disregard for the safety of the lives of the members of the public.
