Police allege trio from Sydney stormed Canberra home, set it alight

Three individuals from western Sydney—two teenagers and an adult—are facing court in the Australian Capital Territory (ACT) over an alleged arson incident in Giralang. The suspects reportedly entered a residence, poured fuel from jerry cans throughout the house, and set it on fire before fleeing with a third male. The two female residents were forced to evacuate and remain hospitalized, expressing fear. Police confirmed the property had previously been targeted in arson attacks and are investigating potential connections. All three men were arrested and charged with arson and endangering lives. While the 18-year-old and one 17-year-old opted against bail, the other 17-year-old received bail under strict conditions including a curfew and restrictions on proximity to co-offenders and victims.
