violent kew east home invasion.




A violent home invasion in Kew East, Melbourne, left a 39-year-old father with serious injuries after being attacked with a machete at his family home on Oxford Street at around 4 am on Sunday, 17 August 2025. The father suffered multiple stab wounds, including a fractured arm. His wife, two young children, and elderly parents were also injured, though their injuries were less severe.
