A quiet Sydney evening turned to terror for a Greenacre family when their home became the target of a brazen shooting attack. Multiple bullets were fired into the property, leaving residents shaken and the community on edge.
The Night That Shook Greenacre
Emergency services rushed to Boronia Road around 10:30pm Tuesday night after reports of gunfire echoing through the suburban street. What they discovered was a residential property riddled with bullet holes, the family inside miraculously escaping physical injury but left deeply traumatised.
"This was a targeted attack," one police source confirmed, noting the precision of the shooting. "The perpetrators knew exactly what they were doing."
Police Launch Major Investigation
NSW Police have launched a full-scale investigation, with forensic teams working through the night to collect evidence. Detectives are examining CCTV footage from surrounding properties and conducting door-to-door inquiries in search of witnesses.
Initial reports suggest multiple suspects were involved in the attack, with witnesses describing seeing a vehicle fleeing the scene at high speed moments after the shots were fired.
Community Reaction and Safety Concerns
Local residents expressed shock and fear following the incident. "You don't expect this in your neighbourhood," one neighbour told reporters. "This is a family area - it's terrifying to think this could happen here."
Police have increased patrols in the area and are urging anyone with information to come forward. "We're treating this with the utmost seriousness," a police spokesperson stated. "We will not rest until those responsible are brought to justice."
The investigation continues as authorities work to determine the motive behind the shocking attack that has left a Sydney community questioning their safety.
