Two masked men have broken into a family home in northwest Sydney, terrorising occupants — including several children — before stealing cash and fleeing the scene. The incident unfolded on Sarah Crescent in Baulkham Hills at approximately 2.20am on Monday, prompting police to launch a manhunt for the pair.

The presence of children in the home at the time has heightened concern in the local community about the brazen nature of the attack.
