About 5.45am Saturday October 22 the occupants of the Dubbo home were woken when five people wearing balaclavas smashed their way in through the front bedroom window.
Armed with knives and a tomahawk, the five people demanded property and cash from the occupants, a 46-year-old man and a 23-year-old woman.
The home was ransacked during which the woman became involved in a physical altercation where she was kicked and struck a number of times.
A number of neighbouring residents heard the disturbance and contacted police.
Officers from Orana Local Area Command attended and established a crime scene.
A 23-year-old woman was treated by NSW Ambulance Paramedics before being taken to Dubbo Hospital as a precaution.
Investigators are urging anyone with information, or any witnesses who have not yet spoken to police, to contact police via Crime Stoppers.
