Terrey Hills Warehouse Robbery Under Investigation After Workers Threatened 

A warehouse robbery at Terrey Hills has prompted a police investigation after workers at a commercial premises on Tepko Road were allegedly threatened by two masked men before several items were taken. 



Workers Threatened During Terrey Hills Warehouse Robbery

Detectives are investigating a warehouse robbery at Terrey Hills after staff at an industrial unit reported being confronted by two men wearing black balaclavas.

Police were called shortly after 6:30 am on Wednesday, 10 June, following reports of a robbery at a commercial premises on Tepko Road. Staff told police the men had allegedly entered the property around 6:00 am, made demands and threatened them.

The men allegedly took several items before leaving the scene a short time later. No injuries were reported.

The incident has drawn attention because of the early-morning timing, the alleged use of face coverings, and the direct threats made towards workers inside the premises. Police have not disclosed what items were taken.

Crime Scene Established on Tepko Road

Officers attached to Northern Beaches Police Area Command attended the site and established a crime scene at the industrial unit.

Detectives were observed carrying out inquiries shortly after 9.00am as the response continued at the Terrey Hills location. The exact circumstances surrounding the alleged robbery remain under investigation, including how the men entered the property and where they went after leaving.

Police have not released any details about vehicles being sought in connection with the incident. The nature of the goods allegedly stolen has also not been revealed.

The warehouse sits within an industrial area on Tepko Road, where several commercial units operate. Warehouses in the area appear to have a high vacancy rate, though it remains unclear whether the targeted unit was occupied under a short-term arrangement.

Goods Taken Have Not Been Revealed

The investigation remains focused on the alleged entry, threats made to staff, and the removal of items from the premises.

No confirmed information has been released about whether weapons were involved, what was taken, or whether the incident was connected to any broader criminal activity. Unverified claims circulating online have not been confirmed by police and have not formed part of the established facts of the case.

The confirmed details remain limited to the report of two men wearing black balaclavas, the alleged threats and demands made towards workers, and the removal of several items from the commercial premises.

Separate Frenchs Forest Incident Forms Local Context

The Terrey Hills warehouse robbery comes after a separate incident last month, when police detained three men who had allegedly broken into a storage facility at Frenchs Forest.

In that matter, the truck allegedly linked to the men was reported to have contained contraband vapes and cigarettes. That incident has not been linked to the Terrey Hills robbery.



Both matters have involved commercial or storage-style premises on the Northern Beaches, but no connection has been established between them.

Investigations into the Terrey Hills warehouse robbery are continuing.

Second Rescue In Days At Belrose Bike Park After Teen Crash

A teenage boy has been rescued at night from Bare Creek Bike Park in Belrose after crashing his mountain bike over a large jump, prompting a coordinated emergency response in difficult conditions.



Crash On Belrose Trail Triggers Emergency Call

Emergency crews were called to Bare Creek Bike Park in Belrose shortly before 6:00 p.m. on Wednesday, 15 April after reports a teenage rider had been injured during a crash on the trails.

The 15-year-old boy had gone over a large jump, descending from a height estimated between five and ten metres before landing heavily on the front wheel. He was thrown over the handlebars and was found on the ground with a suspected broken left leg and possible spinal injuries.

Paramedics from Belrose Ambulance Station reached the location after being guided by the boy’s friends along the bike trails. The exact position had been identified using a mobile emergency application, allowing crews to navigate several hundred metres into the park.

Treated In Darkness As Light Fades

By the time responders arrived, daylight had already faded, leaving paramedics to assess the injured rider in darkness.

The boy was treated at the scene for a suspected broken left leg and possible spinal injuries. Additional specialist support was requested, including a special operations paramedic and a four-wheel-drive ambulance capable of accessing the terrain.

Fire crews also attended to provide lighting and assist with moving the patient safely from the track.

Extraction From Remote Belrose Terrain

Rescue efforts focused on transporting the injured rider from the trail to a point accessible by vehicle. He was placed into an all-terrain stretcher and carefully moved through the park before reaching the four-wheel-drive ambulance.

From there, he was taken back up to the car park and transferred into a standard ambulance. The boy was then transported to The Children’s Hospital at Westmead, arriving in a stable condition shortly before 7:30 p.m.

Second Belrose Incident Within The Week

The rescue was the second at the Belrose bike park that week. Earlier, another 15-year-old rider was injured after falling on a jump on Sunday, 12 April and required assistance to be transported from the trails.

On that occasion, the same four-wheel-drive ambulance was used to retrieve the rider, who was later taken to Sydney Children’s Hospital, Randwick in a stable condition just after 4:00 p.m.

Increased Activity During School Holidays

Bare Creek Bike Park in Belrose features downhill tracks, jumps and skills areas that attract riders, particularly during school holiday periods.



Emergency crews are familiar with the terrain, having attended a number of incidents at the site. Riders, particularly younger users, are reminded to consider conditions and observe signage when using the facility.

Police Seize 3D-Printed Replica Firearms in Belrose

Police in Belrose have seized realistic 3D-printed replica firearms after images shared online prompted an investigation by local officers.



Social Media Images Triggered Police Inquiries

Officers attached to the Northern Beaches Police Area Command became aware of social media posts made in September 2025 that showed items resembling a rifle and a handgun. The images depicted objects similar in appearance to an AK-47-style rifle and a Glock-style pistol.

While the items were incapable of firing live ammunition, police initiated inquiries due to their realistic appearance. Investigators traced the origin of the images to a residential address in Belrose.

Replica Firearms Located And Assessed

Police attended the Belrose address and located the items shown in the images. Officers confirmed the objects were plastic replicas produced using a three-dimensional printer. Further assessment determined the replicas were inert and not capable of being used as firearms.

Police established the items had been created by a teenage boy. Officers were satisfied the replicas were not produced with the intention of committing an offence. The teenager’s parents were cooperative throughout the investigation and surrendered the items to police.

Legal Context Under NSW Law

Police confirmed the replicas met the definition of imitation firearms under the NSW Firearms Act. The Act defines an imitation firearm as an object that substantially duplicates the appearance of a real firearm, regardless of its material, weight, or functionality, unless it is clearly identified as a children’s toy.

Police reiterated that possessing an imitation firearm without appropriate authorisation is an offence in NSW. This includes gel blasters, which remain illegal in the state despite being readily available for purchase online from interstate sellers.

Community Reminder And Outcome

The replica firearms were destroyed by police, and no charges were laid in relation to the incident. Police used the matter as an opportunity to remind the community that realistic replica weapons can cause significant alarm and may be treated as real firearms during any police response.

Police also cautioned that carrying or displaying imitation firearms in public can create serious safety risks, regardless of whether the items are capable of firing.

Outlook



The Belrose investigation has concluded with no further action. Police have reiterated the importance of understanding imitation firearm laws and the potential consequences of creating or possessing realistic replicas, even when no criminal intent is involved.
