Four teenage boys were arrested in dawn raids across Sydney's southwest for their alleged involvement in a violent home invasion at Greenacre on June 6. The teenagers allegedly stormed a house, demanded cash from a safe, and sliced off a 23-year-old man's left hand with a machete during a targeted robbery. The victim has undergone surgery to reattach his hand but may never regain full use of it, while police express concern about young offenders with no prior criminal history committing serious violent crimes.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
