Bassingthwaite said the shooting took place in the same area as an after-hours club, and police are looking at a possible connection.
"We're also exploring the nexus of that and the location, as well as the closeness that location was to where the shooting happened," he said.
He said the public will see an increased police presence as the investigation is carried out.
"Our forensic Identification unit will be arriving on scene shortly and they will be starting to collect evidence at the scene," he said.
There is no suspect information so far.
Police are asking anyone with information to reach out to investigators.
