Armed Crime Squad detectives and the Special Operations Group raided the house at 9.20pm on Sunday.
There, they arrested a 22-year-old Brown Hill man, who is currently under police guard in hospital receiving treatment for an unrelated incident.
He is expected to be charged with intentionally causing serious injury and will likely face a bedside court hearing on Monday.
He is also expected to be to be charged by Ballarat CIU in relation to a car theft in Alfredton and vehicle fire in Nerrina on Sunday.
Detectives from the Armed Crime Squad had remained tight-lipped since the scenes unfolded last week, where a 17-year-old male walked into the APCO Service Station with a gunshot wound on Main Road about 4.15am on Thursday.
