Greek man stabbed to death inside his Sydney home

·

Two teenagers have been charged with murder after a 39-year-old Greek man was allegedly stabbed to death inside his own home in Sydney’s west this morning.

Kevin Kourtis died from multiple stab wounds after five men allegedly stormed into his home in Riverstone just after midnight.

Two women, aged 34 and 43, were also at the Langton Street address when the alleged ambush occurred.

Paramedics were called to the home just after 12.30am, where they performed emergency treatment on the 39-year-old victim but he died a short time later.

The 34-year-old woman was also taken to hospital for treatment to minor injuries.

Police have established several crime scenes, which are being examined by specialist forensic police.

The Riot Squad, PolAir and the Dog Squad were called in to help police search the surrounding area. Within minutes, the two boys, aged 16 and 17, were found on nearby Regent Street and arrested.

They were taken to Riverstone Police Station, where they have since been charged with murder. Both teens have been refused bail and will face children’s court tomorrow.

Police are still looking for the other three people allegedly involved in the attack.
