‘Going to kill you’: Brutal, violent home invasion at terminally ill mother’s home

A Logan family have been targeted in a horrifying and violent home invasion that left a father beaten and injured while his terminally ill wife was in hospital.

Logan mother Kylie Noon battles terminal breast cancer.

A Logan family of six, watching their terminally ill mother lie in a cramped room while paralysed, are reeling after a horrific home invasion left their father gruesomely beaten with his ear nearly sliced off.

David and Kylie Noon, who have been inseparable since meeting in 2002, are preparing to say goodbye as a cancer diagnosis will soon change their life forever.

David Noon said he fell instantly in love with his now wife Kylie after recognising her kind heart and generous soul.

The couple share four teenage sons together.

Mrs Noon, 38, was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2020 and continued to battle through multiple treatments before receiving a terminal metastatic diagnosis in January this year after a critical tumour appeared at the top of her spine.

On Friday night, August 16 two men smashed their way into the family home with bats, a steel pole and a butchers knife.

Mr Noon said during the attack he felt "already dead".

Mr Noon said the men smashed through the screen and front door while shouting, “We’re going to kill you”.

“They smashed me in the head with a bat and held a knife to my neck and told me they would slice it,” Mr Noon said.

“With Kylie’s terminal cancer diagnosis all of my emotions have been spent, I just felt numb and didn’t really react.

“You can’t hurt me, I’m already dead.”

Mr Noon spent one night in hospital after suffering a slashed arm, ear, stomach and chest.

“I am covered in bruises after they repeatedly thrashed my stomach with a pole,” Mr Noon said.

Luckily, Mrs Noon was in hospital and not at home during the attack.

A Queensland Police spokesman confirmed that two men forced entry into the Acacia Ridge on August 16.

“They allegedly assaulted an occupant and threatened the 55-year-old man with a bat and knife,” a Police spokesman said.

“The two men then allegedly left the home and damaged two vehicles parked in the driveway, nothing was stolen.

“A 41-year-old Acacia Ridge man was charged with three counts of wilful damage and one count each of assault occasioning bodily harm, threatening violence – discharge firearms or other act and enter dwelling with intent by break in company.

“A 30-year-old Acacia Ridge man was charged with three counts of wilful damage and one count each of assault occasioning bodily, threatening violence – discharge firearms or other act, possess dangerous drugs and enter dwelling with intent by break in company.”

Both men appeared at Richlands Magistrates Court earlier this month.

Luckily, Mrs Noon was not at the home during the time of the attack.

A representative of 4Voices, an organisation assisting vulnerable women in the community, said Mrs Noon’s palliative care bed was less than one metre from the entrance to their home.

“Her bed occupies three quarters of the tiny living room, adjacent to a small ill-equipped kitchen and four big teenage boys occupy two tiny bedrooms and can barely walk past their mum’s bed without knocking it,’’ they said.

“It is confronting to see but then you realise that this is precisely where Kylie has always been – in the centre of the household, the pivot point, the glue that binds this amazingly cohesive family.

“It makes it somehow even sadder.’’

Mr Noon said the diagnosis was incredibly shocking and surreal.

“We spend our quality time together going to the park and making barbecues outside,” Mr Noon said.

“I wanted to run when we found out, it was very scary and I was left thinking what can we do?’’

The couple was married only two years ago after Mrs Noon’s initial diagnosis.

Mrs Noon said she wanted to make sure her sons knew that I had the same last name as hers.

“We want to spend every second possible together,” she said.

Logan mother Kylie Noon has terminal breast cancer.

4Voices has started a GoFundMe page to support the family after Mrs Noon’s passing.

“The poor man is numb and the family are reeling,” a 4Voices spokesman said.

Mr Noon said funds would contribute to their children’s future and Mrs Noon’s funeral.

“She is so special and needs a good farewell,’’ he said.

“We would like to thank the hospital, all the wonderful nurses and 4Voices for all of your support.’’

Mrs Noon said she did not want her family to worry.

“I want to be able to give my family the opportunity to say goodbye to me properly, so that they can go on with their lives knowing that I will always be with them in spirit,’’ she said.

“I would appreciate anything (people) can give.’’
