A number of shots were fired into a residential property on Westlake Drive about 2am on Saturday, February 18.
At the time a family, including three children under 10, were sleeping inside.
No one was physically injured during the incident.
Investigators believe that the incident was a case of mistaken identity and are appealing for anyone with information to come forward.
They are also keen to speak to anyone who may have seen a motorbike travelling in company with a V8 sounding vehicle in the area around that time.
Anyone with information about the incident is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or make a confidential report at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au.
