A baby named Antonia's skull was broken in during a suspected violent burglary.

The entire community has come together to support a family whose two-month-old baby, Antonia, was severely injured during a violent home invasion in Alice Springs. According to reports, the incident took place on December 11 in the family's home in Larapinta. Baby Antonia was in her mother, Nicole Siguenza's arms when two teenagers allegedly broke into their home. The intruders used a metal weapon to assault the mother and child, resulting in Antonia sustaining serious head injuries, including a fractured skull and a brain bleed.

The news of this horrific incident has shocked and saddened many, prompting the community to take action. A fundraiser has been set up to help the Siguenza family during this difficult time. The fundraiser mentions that Nicole's husband, Marlon, is currently unable to work as he is taking care of their other four children while Nicole and Antonia are in the hospital in Adelaide. The family's Christmas plans have been disrupted, and the community is rallying together to ensure that they can all be together soon.

Various in-person fundraisers have been organized in Alice Springs, such as a bake sale that took place last week. Another fundraiser is being advertised on social media, to be held at a local brewery next month. In an interview with ABC, Marlon shared that his daughter had suffered seizures due to the attack. While she is now doing better, she remains in the hospital. Nicole, on the other hand, sustained bruising but is otherwise okay.

The two teenagers responsible for the attack were apprehended within an hour and a half of the incident. They have been charged with multiple offenses, including causing serious harm, assault, robbery, theft, and burglary. This incident has caused outrage and concern, with NT Chief Minister Lia Finocchiaro labeling it as "totally unacceptable." She also acknowledged the anger and frustration felt by many in the community, who deserve to feel safe in their own homes.

In response to this incident, NT Police have announced that they will expand their taskforce, Operation Ludlow, to focus on reducing crime in more suburbs around Alice Springs. The community is relieved that the offenders have been caught and are hopeful that this taskforce will help prevent similar incidents from happening in the future. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Siguenza family, and we hope for Antonia's speedy recovery.
