A 26-year-old man has appeared in court charged with murder over a drive-by shooting at a Melbourne pool hall in February.
Father-of-five Ikenasio Tuivasa was fatally shot while he was standing outside the All Star Lounge in Ravenhall with his family and friends just after midnight on January 27.
A 24-year-old Endeavour Hills man was also shot and seriously injured.
Police arrested 26-year-old Hoppers Crossing man Nikola Latuhoi on Tuesday, and charged him with murder and intentionally causing serious injury.
A second man has also been charged over the incident.
The court heard text messages need to be translated as part of the prosecution case, and Latuhoi is facing separate car theft charges.
He is in custody, did not apply for bail, and will face court again in August.
