Police are hunting a group of masked assailants after a shot was fired through a door at the Allawah Court apartments about 5.45am today.
The victim of the shooting, Albert Ferguson, has told The Canberra Times that he was woken abruptly to a knocking at his door early this morning.

He opened his door slightly, and it was shoved from the outside.
"I answered the door and I had a shotgun in my face," Mr Ferguson said.
"So I tried to push the door closed back in, busted my shoulder ... and there were two guys, they had the gun at me," he said.
"I pushed the door closed, and my friend woke up a minute later and came to give me a hand.
"As soon as I shut the door, the gun went 'bang' ... it got me on top of my left foot."
The offenders fled on foot shortly afterward, police say.
Mr Ferguson, who has lived at the Allawah Court apartments in Braddon for 12 years, suffered bruising to his foot, and was in shock, but was otherwise unharmed.
He said his attackers were wearing Rebels Motorcycle Club bandanas.
Police are describing the attack as an "isolated and random" incident.
Detective Senior Constable Kyle Williams said the attack was not related to recent gang violence in Sydney.
Police said one man was described as between 173cm to 183 cm tall (5'8" to 6') and about 60kg. He was wearing a cap and balaclava.
A second person was between 168cm to 173cm tall (5'6" to 5' 8"). He was wearing a white baseball cap and black bandana across his face.DISCLAIMER:Text may be subject to copyright.This blog does not claim copyright to any such text. Copyright remains with the original copyright holder
