Shocking footage has emerged of a machete-wielding man repeatedly striking a vehicle after two teenagers allegedly attempted to set his property on fire in a wild incident overnight.

The Daily Telegraph obtained footage of Manoa Sinamoni, 43, allegedly smashing a vehicle with a machete after he chased two teenagers down in a 10km car pursuit from his Lalor Park property to South Wentworthville.

It all started when emergency services were called to a driveway on Mackenzie St in Concord West just after 10.40pm, and found a Nissan X-trail on fire.

Firefighters extinguished the blaze but the vehicle was partially destroyed.

Just before midnight, police said there was an attempt to set a home on fire at Northcote Rd, Lalor Park.

In a second video obtained by this masthead, footage depicts two teenagers allegedly approaching Sinamoni’s property with a jerry can.

The 43-year-old homeowner allegedly saw two teenagers flee in a Toyota Prado and can be seen in the vision sprinting after the pair before a car pursuit ensued.
