Hughenden Intruder

From a Hughenden resident


At 18h17 on Monday 23rd we had this intruder on premises. We have electric fencing and think that he either climbed a tree and jumped into the property or scaled the 2m gate. I had just arrived home and I was feeding my dogs at the time and heard a strange voice calling out, the dogs ran around the house and he was trapped inside my property. I shouted what are you doing and my house mate from our cottage went out...he was high or drunk. I pressed panic and then all buttons in my panic and the gate opened and my house mate chased him out . ADT was quick to respond but unfortunately he got away towards the open entrance to the broken gate at the top of Hughenden. Adt was responding at the time to an intruder opposite, could be the same guy. He dropped a wallet, blue Liberty life with cash caddy on opposite side. We will look for his shirt tomorrow? He was standing with his hands on his head saying 'I am innocent' when my house mate was holding him at the gate. He was out of breath as if running...hair is shaven, bravo male young.
