Police are hunting down two alleged gunmen on the run after two separate shootings south of Brisbane.

The night of alleged shootings began when a group of people, one armed with a gun, stormed a property on Granger Road in Logan about 7.40pm yesterday, police said.

The group allegedly demanded several items from the man inside, 23-year-old Jake Nicoll, who refused.

Police alleged the gun was then shot and Nicoll suffered a wound to his neck.

The group allegedly fled the scene in a car with a small number of personal items.

Neighbours told 9News they heard a loud bang before Nicoll's loved ones at the home went door-to-door begging for someone to call an ambulance.

Nicoll was taken to hospital with the non-life-threatening injury.

Police alleged this was a robbery gone wrong.

About two hours later, shots were fired at the nearby Logan Reserve in what appeared to be a drive-by shooting.
