All three vehicles stolen from Chris Hemsworth and Elsa Pataky's Australian home have now been recovered, following a late-night break-in that reportedly saw four masked intruders enter the couple's property while their family slept.

The incident took place in the early hours of Wednesday, November 11, 2026, at the actors' estate in Broken Head, near Byron Bay in New South Wales. Two of the suspected intruders appeared to be carrying knives, according to accounts of the property's security footage.

Although the thieves escaped with three vehicles, police have since located every stolen car. The investigation remains active, and no injuries were reported.

Elsa Pataky reportedly heard the family dogs barking at 2am

According to Australian broadcaster 7NEWS, which cited sources close to Hemsworth, Pataky was awakened at approximately 2am by the sound of the family's dogs barking.

Unaware of what was happening outside, the Spanish actress reportedly went back to sleep.

It was only later that morning, when she reviewed the property's CCTV recordings, that the apparent cause of the disturbance became clear.

The footage reportedly showed four individuals wearing balaclavas entering the estate, with two appearing to carry knives. The intruders allegedly climbed over a security fence before reaching a garage containing three vehicles.

The cars, reportedly parked with their keys inside, were then stolen.

Hemsworth and Pataky contacted police, who attended the property at approximately 7.30am.

Officers from the Tweed-Byron Police District established a crime scene and began investigating the thefts. Police confirmed that four unknown individuals were alleged to have entered the property and taken three vehicles.

Police have now recovered all three stolen vehicles

The vehicles were reportedly a BYD, a Ram and a Ford Raptor ute.

Early coverage indicated that officers had recovered only two of the vehicles, with one discovered near Coraki and another in Tabulam, both some distance from the couple's home.

However, subsequent information provided by law enforcement to TMZ confirmed that the third vehicle was located in Lennox Head on Thursday, November 12.

That development means all three stolen vehicles have been recovered, correcting the earlier impression that one remained missing.

However, their recovery does not mean the investigation has concluded or that the cars have already been returned to their owners.

Police have seized all three vehicles for forensic examination as investigators continue attempting to establish the circumstances of the theft and identify those responsible.

Did the intruders enter Chris Hemsworth's house?

Despite descriptions of the incident as a home invasion, the available reporting establishes that the suspects allegedly entered the couple's property and accessed a garage.

There has been no confirmed account of the intruders entering the main residence or confronting Hemsworth, Pataky or their children.

That distinction matters because the reported presence of knives understandably raises concerns about the potential danger of the incident, but it does not establish that an armed confrontation occurred.

According to a November 13 report by the Brisbane Times, no arrests or charges had been announced in connection with the thefts.

It also remains unclear whether the suspects deliberately selected the property because of its famous owners or for another reason.

For now, the confirmed outcome is that nobody was reported injured and all three vehicles have been located. Identifying the people responsible remains the central unresolved question for investigators.
