Earlier, couriermail.com reported that people who heard a "loud bang" in Brisbane's south last night thought little of it at the time, but now know it was their neighbour being shot.
Crime scene tape cordoned off the semi-rural property - which neighbours said was rented by a man - and about 11 yellow markers were positioned on the dirt driveway outside the double garage.
Neighbours described hearing a "loud bang" on Friday night but said they did not think too much of it at the time.

They said news of the shooting came as a surprise".
"We all keep to ourselves ... these are frightening times," one neighbour said.
"I didn't even hear police until friends tried to come and visit us but couldn't get in the street."

The house lies in a quiet residential cul de sac with no street lights.
Police confirmed a man was spotted leaving the address in a vehicle after the shooting.
Another neighbour who did not want to be named said he noticed a "white pick-up truck" parked outside the house half an hour beforehand.
"I wasn't actually here when it (the incident) happened but when I drove out the driveway I saw a truck there," he said.
"It was odd because of the way it was faced - it was on the wrong side of the road but parked right outside their driveway."
Police said two other people - a man and a woman - were also at the home at the time of the incident but were not hurt.
The man who was shot in the chest is now in a serious but stable condition after undergoing surgery, and is "expected to survive".
It is believed that both men are known to police but their relationship is unknown.
Police are asking anyone with information about the shooting to come forward and contact Crime Stoppers.
Last night, it was reported that a man had been shot in the chest in his home in Brisbane's south.
Police were hunting a gunman who fled the scene after shooting a 41-year-old man on Callistemon Court at Greenbank about 8pm.
The victim was in his home when he was shot.
It is not believed that the shooter forced his way into the home or that the man was shot in a drive-by style incident.
The man was taken to the Princess Alexandra Hospital in a critical condition and is undergoing surgery.
Police have cordoned off the home and forensic officers have established a crime scene.
