Three men and a woman have been arrested following an alleged home invasion this morning at Point Cook.
The occupants of the Java Lane home rang police when they realised the four were attempting to break into their home, by a rear door, just before 10am.
Having no success at the back of the house the burglars, allegedly armed with a baseball bat and a hatchet, smashed through the front door and entered the home.
When police arrived all four offenders ran out the back door.
A search was conducted in the local area with one offender being arrested near-by and the other three arrested a short time later.
Due to the quick response of police the male and female occupants of the house were not injured and nothing was stolen during the burglary.
Police arrested a 25-year-old Sunshine man, a 32-year-old Altona Meadows man, a 24-year-old Werribee woman and a Truganina man aged 25 years.
Wyndham Crime Investigation Unit detectives have charged the four with home invasion, theft of motor car and weapon offences.
The three men have also been charged with possess drug of dependence.
They are all expected to be remanded in custody to appear at court at a later date.
