Sleeping NSW couple roused by burglars

A Sydney couple have had to flee their home when they were awoken by a noise that turned out to be burglars.

The Bonnyrigg couple was awoken about 1am on Friday when three men entered the house, ransacking the premises, police say.

Officers arrived a short time later and arrested one of the alleged intruders, who is being questioned, while they are still seeking the other two men.

The man has been refused bail to appear at Fairfield Local Court on Friday, charged with aggravated break and enter with intent.
