Ambulance officers assisted the man however he died at the scene.
The victim is a 19-year-old from the address.

Several yards, verges and streets were searched for evidence, and a quantity of items have been seized. It is unclear currently if any of these items are linked to this incident.
Carey Avenue was closed for several hours but has since reopened.
Detectives are also looking to speak to the occupants of two vehicles which were seen nearby to the murder scene on Fidock Avenue around the time of the incident. The two vehicles are a small four door white coloured sedan with a rear hatch, similar to a Hyundai I30, and the other a dark coloured four door sedan, similar in appearance to an early model Ford.

Subsequently a 19-year-old man from the address was arrested in relation to the firearm, and he has been charged with possessing a firearm without a licence, possessing ammunition as well as other offences. He was refused bail and will appear in the Adelaide Magistrates Court tomorrow.
