Police have charged a man and a woman following a six-hour siege in Sydney's industrial site, which resulted in the death of two men.
The incident came to an end when the gunman died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, after police swarmed a signage business at an industrial estate on Monday, Xinhua reported.
The gunman, named by some media outlets as 33-year-old Wayne Williams, had links to an outlaw motorcycle gang.
The police said a 52-year-old man and a 30-year-old woman had been charged overnight.
Three hostages were released from the building shortly after 5 p.m. (local time) on Monday and attended to by ambulance paramedics.
Emergency services were called to the scene at 10.45 a.m. (local time) when three people were shot, one fatally.
