A woman who has been dubbed the “nightie ninja” by her local community has spoken on 3AW Drive on how she’s been able to scare off home invaders in her neighbourhood.

Anna told Jacqui Felgate it’s the second time the offenders have tried to break into one of the houses in the Pakenham area, with herself and her husband taking matters into their own hands, on Sunday morning in particular.

“I wasn’t thinking at the time,” Anna said on 3AW Drive.

“They’re obviously targeting houses that have fancy cars out the front,” she said.

“Our houses are meant to be our safe haven … it’s just shocking how much crime has gone up in the last couple of months.”
