Officers from Orana Local Area Command attended and found shots had been fired at a car at the location.
Following inquiries, police believe that a black sedan was seen in the area at the time of the shooting.
Inquiries have led police to believe the car may have ties to the Wellington area.
No person was injured as a result of the incident.
A second incident occurred between Thursday 26 September 2016 and Thursday 6 October 2016. Police were called after a break and enter at a property on the Newell Highway, north of Dubbo.
Police have been told that 16 firearms were stolen from the property along with other items.
Following inquiries, police have located 7 of these firearms and some of the stolen property.
Officers have charged three people for a variety of offences regarding this incident and they are currently before the courts.
