Alleged ‘targeted’ home invasion in Ferny Creek

An alleged aggravated burglary in Ferny Creek in mid June saw one resident left with a serious physical injury after offenders entered their home.

Police are investigating after the aggravated burglary on Tuesday, 18 June.

Investigators have been told three offenders armed with edged weapons entered the Saville Street residence about 3.45pm.

Police media said that the group made demands for cash and valuables from the three occupants of the residence before leaving the scene.

“A 33-year-old man sustained a cut on their arm when they were pushed by an offender but did not require medical treatment,” they said.

The other two occupants, a 34-year-old woman and 63-year-old woman, were not physically injured.

Investigations into the matter remain ongoing but police believe this to be a targeted incident.
