Three teenagers have been arrested over a home invasion that left two people in hospital.

Officers have been told five people armed with machetes forced their way into a home in St Albans in Melbourne's west overnight.

They demanded cash from a man and a woman inside the home, ransacked the property and stole money before running away, police allege.

The pair were injured and taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

A man, 18, and two boys, aged 15 and 17, have been arrested and are assisting police.

The investigation is ongoing and police are asking anyone with information to call Crime Stoppers.
