Beau Lamarre-Condon allegedly fired three bullets from his police issued Glock pistol to kill Jesse Baird and Luke Davies, it will be alleged in court. 

Prosecutors will allege in court that Mr Baird, 26, and Mr Davies, 28, were killed with three separate shots at Mr Baird’s Paddington, Sydney, home. 

Police will allege Mr Baird’s murder was premeditated and believe Mr Davies was in the wrong place at the wrong time.

‘We will be strongly claiming in our case that this murder was premeditated and the second murder occurred because of, unfortunately, Luke’s presence at the house,’ Assistant Commissioner Michael Fitzgerald told Nine News.

Police allege that two days before the men died, the constable purchased a surfboard cover at a store in Miranda in Sydney’s south.

Detectives allege it was bought with the intention of carrying Mr Baird’s body – but after allegedly killing both men, one bag was not enough.

‘Following the incidents, he went back and bought a further surfboard cover,’ Mr Fitzgerald added.

It was revealed on Thursday morning that NSW Police will allege in court that Lamarre-Condon then used bullets stolen from a gun range to reload the firearm.

Constable Lamarre-Condon then allegedly checked the gun back into Balmain Police Station.

The details of the alleged police case against Lamarre-Condon were first reported by Radio 2GB’s Ben Fordham. 

He said police would further allege Constable Lamarre-Condon used bullets stolen from a firing range a fortnight before the killing to refill his gun so as not to raise suspicions from his police force superiors when the gun was returned.

Police have alleged the gun was taken from Miranda police station on Friday night and was stored at Balmain police station on the Monday night after the alleged murders.

It was then allegedly returned to Miranda police station on Tuesday, with a full magazine, as if no shots were fired.

Police Commissioner Karen Webb is under fire over the gun handling protocols that would enable a police-issued weapon to disappear for days.

Speaking to ABC’s 7.30 on Wednesday night, Ms Webb explained that officers could store a weapon overnight at a police station or inside an approved safe at home; however, they need to gain permission from their superiors.

She did not comment on claims surrounding Constable Lamarre-Condon’s gun storage and said it would form part of the investigation.

Lamarre-Condon has been charged with two counts with murder and will face court at a later date. 

More to come.
