FRANKSTON: Home invasion charges


Detectives have charged a woman following an alleged aggravated home invasion in Frankston on Sunday morning (Nov. 15).
It is alleged three offenders forced entry to a Lucerne Crescent address about 12.40am, where there was an altercation with a male occupant.
The trio allegedly fled in a silver-coloured vehicle.
A short time later, emergency services were called to reports a man had been located with stab wounds, on the corner of Leonard and Beach Sts, about 1.20am.
The 31-year-old man, believed to have been in the silver-coloured vehicle that allegedly fled from Lucerne Crescent, died at the scene.
Homicide Squad detectives continue to investigate the circumstances surrounding the death.
A 33-year-old Frankston South woman, alleged to have also been in the silver-coloured vehicle, was arrested near the corner of Leonard and Beach Sts.
She has since been charged with aggravated home invasion and theft of a motor vehicle.
The woman was remanded to appear before Frankston Magistrates’ Court on November 16.
A 45-year-old Frankston man, the occupant of the Lucerne Crescent property, was arrested on Saturday morning.
He was interviewed in relation to the death and released pending further investigation. A third person, alleged to have been involved in the aggravated home invasion, had yet to be located.
