An alleged crime spree, including two home invasions on Sydney's north shore and three police chases, has ended in the death of two men on their way to work.

Earlier this week, homes in Mosman and Lavender Bay were broken into in the middle of the night as the occupants were asleep inside.

A Toyota Hilux ute was stolen from one of the properties.

In the early hours of Thursday morning, the mangled remains of that grey four-wheel-drive ute were strewn across an intersection at St Peters in Sydney's inner west.
