Two men have been charged over a break-in at a Gold Coast home, where the occupants were forced to hide in a bathroom.
The pair is accused of entering the home on Grandview Terrace in Tallai around 5am on Friday morning.
They allegedly removed several items before stealing the cars to a silver Hyundai hatchback that was parked in the driveway.
They’re then accused of stealing the car before crashing into a nearby fence.
Police say the men then returned to the home and stole more items, including a second vehicle, a blue BMW station wagon.
Officers arrived a short time later following frantic calls from the occupants.
A 33-year-old Mudgeeraba man and a 31-year-old Ashmore man were taken into custody.
They’ve both been charged with two counts of enter premises and two counts of unlawful use of a motor vehicle.
The 31-year-old faced court on Saturday, while the 33-year-old is due to reappear in Southport Magistrates Court on November 4.
