Strap: Police seek two men after attack on couple

SUNSHINE Coast detectives are looking for two men who left a couple traumatised after a violent home invasion in Noosaville over the weekend.
Police will alleged at about 3.25pm on Saturday 31 January, two men entered a home on Goodchap Street under the pretence of selling goods.
