The Herald was invited inside the property, which had a broken-down door and a backyard full of rubbish and wine bottles. Senior Sergeant John Nicol said police received multiple calls about a large disorder event involving young people on Phyllis St about 9.50 pm. A Phyllis St resident's car was one of many smashed in a September 2019 party. In 2019, Shu said there had only ever been single people booking and checking into his two Phyllis St properties on Booking.com. Stuff reported in 2022 that a bullet was found on an Epsom property, owned by Shu as a landlord through his property management business, ARent1.
