Sydney local news evening update for January 29, 2026. As the sun sets on your Thursday, we wrap up the major stories impacting our city and state.

In this edition, we have a chilling update on the manhunt for a fugitive wanted over a triple murder, with new CCTV footage surfacing from just hours before the incident. We also issue a warning to Sydneysiders regarding a sophisticated scam involving a rideshare driver who allegedly swindled a passenger out of their life savings.

On a lighter note, could digging up Sydney's lost creeks be the secret to cooling down the city? We look at the proposal to "daylight" our hidden waterways. Plus, we check in on the controversial "two-door" apartment complex proposed for Mosman and celebrate some Aussie success down at the tennis.
