Police have released CCTV vision and are appealing for information after a man was left critically injured following a home invasion in Sydney’s west late last year.

About 4.30pm on Tuesday 24 December 2019, emergency services were called to a home on Cassia Place, St Clair, after reports a man had been found injured inside.

Officers from Nepean Police Area Command attended and found a 49-year-old man with serious facial injuries.

He was treated by NSW Ambulance paramedics before being taken to Westmead Hospital in a critical condition and placed in an induced coma.

Investigations under Strike Force Stuart continue.

Anyone with information about this incident is urged to contact Nepean detectives on 9677 7547 or Crime Stoppers: 1800 333 000 or . Information is treated in strict confidence.
