Estate agent Sid Morgan still on life support after Point Cook shooting

Sid Morgan, the Hills district estate agent shot in the face in Melbourne, remains on life support.

The update was advised by prosecutors during a court appearance yesterday by two Irishmen charged with his attempted murder.

Prosecutors said Mr Morgan is on life support but defence lawyers claim the description of his condition could be an “exaggeration’’.

Prosecutors in Melbourne Magistrates Court said Sid Morgan remains in an induced coma.

Mark Dixon, 30, and Jack Harvey, 26, were arrested in NSW near Byron Bay last Wednesday over the Point Cook shooting on February 21.

Dixon and Harvey were extradited to Victoria.

Both have been charged with attempting to murder Mr Morgan, 53, in the middle of a street after an argument in the western Melbourne suburb.
