The occupant of the second vehicle and a passenger were not injured.

Police attended the scene, a roadside breath test returned a positive result, and subsequent breath analysis at Castle Hill Police Station allegedly returned a reading of 0.273.

🚨Copper Cable Theft - Kenthurst, Maraylya and Annangrove 🚨

Hills Police are investigating a series of incidents involving the theft of telecommunications cabling in the Kenthurst, Maraylya and Annangrove areas.

Offenders are targeting power poles along Pitt Town Road, Cattai Ridge Road and Annangrove Road, where Telstra cables are being cut and stolen. Police believe offenders are removing lengths of up to 300 metres at a time, before stripping the cable to obtain copper. ⚠️

We are particularly seeking information about:
• vehicles stopping or parked along these roadways, especially at night or early morning
• persons seen near power poles or roadside infrastructure
• any unusual activity involving cutting, climbing, or handling cables

If you observe suspicious behaviour, **do not approach**, and contact police immediately.

📹 Residents and motorists are also asked to review CCTV, dashcam, or farm cameras covering these areas.

🌧️✨ Fingers crossed for clearer skies, Hills! ✨🌧️

We’re hoping this weather turns itself around so you can all head into the city and enjoy Vivid Sydney over the coming nights.
Some of our Hills officers are rostered on at the event each evening, supporting the huge crowds and soaking up the lights right alongside you.

If the clouds behave, come say hello if you spot a familiar uniform in town — we’ll be there helping keep the night safe and bright.

Big exhausts. A massive spoiler. More than one convertible.

We heard them before we saw them.

Across two nights in Sydney’s CBD, 34 suspect vehicles were selected for inspection based on what we could see and hear.

After noise testing we issued:

👉 25 defect notices

👉 23 fines totalling $8,450

The compliance blitz in Barangaroo with NSW Police Force and Transport for NSW follows multiple community reports of noisy vehicles in the area.

Please keep reporting noisy vehicles: bit.ly/ReportNoisyVehicles
