A hit and run crash in Belmore left a ute overturned on Benaroon Road, with two men fleeing the scene after colliding with another vehicle. The innocent Polestar driver was taken to hospital with minor neck and back injuries. One of the men later presented himself at Campsie Police Station and was released without charge, leaving police with unanswered questions about the incident.

The NSW Police Commissioner Mal Lanyon has extended the ban on large protests across metropolitan Sydney for another two weeks due to ongoing safety concerns following the Bondi attack that claimed 15 lives. Smaller gatherings remain permitted but cannot spill onto city streets, with the decision to be reviewed in a fortnight ahead of potential Invasion Day protests on January 26. A temporary solar-powered menorah memorial, created by Jewish artist Joel Adler, has been installed at Archer Park to honour the victims while plans for a permanent memorial are finalised.
