Home and Away is set for one of its biggest moments of the year, with a shock shooting to leave one Summer Bay resident fighting for their life.

The storyline follows a recent crime wave across the Bay, after a string of break-ins and robberies put the coastal community on edge.

The unknown culprit remains at large, with police in Yabbie Creek stepping up their investigation as the situation escalates.

Crime wave reaches Summer Bay Fit

The latest incident unfolded when Lacey, played by Sophea Pennington, arrived to open Summer Bay Fit and found the lock had been broken.

She then discovered the intruder was still inside the gym, raising the question of whether the same person is behind the recent robberies.
