Police arrest gunman in connection with deadly Bali shooting
The suspected gunman is helping officers with their enquiries at Badung Police Station as they investigate the fatal shooting of Mr Radmanovic, 32, and the wounding of Mr Ghanim, 34.
It is believed that a second man remains on the run.
A Bali Police spokesperson confirmed an arrest was made at 3am local time, The Daily Telegraph reported.

Two masked gunmen forced their way into a villa in Bali's Badung district on Saturday, opening fire and killing Mr Radmanovic while he was in the bathroom.

Mr Ghanim, who sustained a gunshot wound to the leg, is recovering from his injuries and is expected to be approached by investigators today.
Mr Ghanim shares a child with Danielle Stephens, daughter of underworld figure Roberta Williams.
The Daily Telegraph reported that Mr Ghanim has connections in Middle Eastern organised crime, raising suspicions that the incident may be part of a broader underworld dispute.

World No.1 re-hires doctor that started controversial drugs saga
Wimbledon champion Jannik Sinner has confirmed he has reappointed his former fitness coach Umberto Ferrara with immediate effect. Italian world No.1 Sinner parted ways with Ferrara and physiotherapist Giacomo Naldi last year after the investigation into his positive tests for the banned substance clostebol in March. 'The decision has been made in alignment with Jannik's management team as part of ongoing preparations for upcoming tournaments, including the Cincinnati Open and US Open,' a statement from Sinner's team said on Wednesday. 'Umberto has played an important role in Jannik's development to date, and his return reflects a renewed focus on continuity and performance at the highest level.' Sinner, who returned to action in May and lost to Carlos Alcaraz in the French Open final before beating him to win Wimbledon, said clostebol, which can build muscle mass, entered his system after Naldi applied an over-the-counter spray to a cut on his own hand before carrying out treatments on Sinner. The spray had been given to Naldi by trainer Ferrara. Wimbledon champion Jannik Sinner has reappointed his former fitness coach. (AP PHOTO) Credit: AAP Sinner was cleared of fault or negligence by an independent tribunal, which accepted he had inadvertently been contaminated with the substance. Speaking at last year's US Open, Sinner explained his decision to part ways with Ferrara and Naldi. 'Now, because of these mistakes, I'm not feeling that confident to continue with them. I was struggling a lot in the last months. I was waiting for the result. The only thing I need right now is some clean air,' he said. Ferrara, who had laid the blame for the incident on Naldi, worked with Sinner's fellow Italian Matteo Berrettini this year. Now that they're back together, social media has erupted with suspicion and outrage, led by Australian tennis star Nick Kyrgios, who has been scathing of Sinner right throughout the saga. 'He got the same doc back,' Kyrgios wrote alongside three laughing emojis. 'We have been played ladies and gentlemen.' Former Australian Open semi-finalist Paul McNamee was dumbfounded that the world No.1 went back to the well that got him in trouble in the first place. 'Jannik Sinner rehiring Umberta Ferrara has to be up there as one of the most astonishing PR moves in tennis history. You can afford to hire anyone in the world. Why oh why Jannik?' he wrote.

Prominent independent tennis narrator and writer Pavvy G said it could turn out to be the Italian's downfall. 'The mainstream media outside of the tennis media were already starting to get suspicious of the Sinner doping case, this will now give them more ammunition to investigate what really happened. Sinner's team have finally made a big mistake that may well finally expose the truth,' he said. Other fans were just as incredulous. 'You just can't make this s*** up, Sinner fooling everyone around and tennis org permitting it,' one said. 'Just woken up. I didn't think the Sinner saga could get any worse. What an absolute PR disaster by him and for the sport in general. A very dark day,' another added.

Brisbane news live: Man arrested after allegedly climbing onto roof after police chase
Go to latest Man allegedly tries to evade arrest by climbing onto roof after police chase By Police have taken a man into custody who had attempted to hide on a roof in Ipswich, after road spikes stopped him driving an allegedly stolen vehicle. Officers were called to Pine Mountain Road, in Brassall, just before 8.40am on Wednesday to reports a stolen Honda HR-V hit the back of a Hyundai I40. The driver of the allegedly stolen vehicle fled the scene before police arrived, but was tracked with the help of Polair. Officers said the 20-year-old Brassall man behind the wheel was stopped with tyre spikes several suburbs over on Quarry Street. The man then ran away, police said, climbing onto a roof before he was arrested. Police will allege the driver tried to evade police several times, resulting in several police vehicles being hit and damaged. Police said yesterday that no one was significantly injured, and investigations were ongoing. 7.43am Australians 'going to sleep' on China threat, Morrison tells US Congress By Michael Koziol Former prime minister Scott Morrison has told the United States Congress that Australians are at risk of 'going to sleep' on the security threat posed by China, and warned the US and its allies that they must be prepared to wear economic pain to stand up to Beijing. Appearing before a congressional hearing on the Chinese Communist Party, Morrison cited polling by the Lowy Institute that showed, in 2025, 50 per cent of Australians said China was 'more of an economic partner to Australia', whereas 47 per cent said it was 'more of a security threat'. That had changed significantly from 2021-22, a time of strained relations between Canberra and Beijing, when 63 per cent said China was more of a security threat and 33 per cent said it was more of an economic partner. 'That is an objective of the CCP – that Western democracies will go to sleep on the threat,' Morrison told the hearing. 7.40am Man allegedly tries to evade arrest by climbing onto roof after police chase By Catherine Strohfeldt Police have taken a man into custody who had attempted to hide on a roof in Ipswich, after road spikes stopped him driving an allegedly stolen vehicle.

A 41-year-old Zillmere man was arrested last Wednesday following an outstanding arrest warrant. He became unresponsive about 5pm on July 19 and – despite first aid by watchhouse and nursing staff – died about an hour later. Police launched an investigation, which will be overseen by the Crime and Corruption Commission. 7.23am Rain, rain, gone away By Felicity Caldwell After yesterday's afternoon of winter storms, we can look forward to a beautiful sunny day in Brisbane today. The Bureau of Meteorology is predicting a top of 21 degrees for Brisbane today, with sunny skies and light winds. Meteorologist Dean Narramore said there would be 'lots of sunshine' for the Sunshine State on Thursday. 'It could be a cooler morning through inland areas, we may see a few isolated frost patches for the Darling Downs and Maranoa and Warrego, but otherwise a dry and sunny day after a cool start,' he said. 7.18am While you were sleeping Here's what's making news further afield this morning: Australia has quietly paid the US another $800 million towards the AUKUS submarine deal, taking the total to $1.6 billion, despite the Trump administration placing the agreement under a review.
