Police appeal to public appeal over burglary spree

Police are appealing for public assistance following a series of burglaries across the western suburbs earlier this year.

It’s believed two unknown males attended a dozen retailers and restaurants in Hoppers Crossing, Sunshine, Keilor Park, Deer Park, Caroline Springs and Melton between March and June.

Investigators have been told on each occasion, the offenders used crowbars to force entry into the premises and stole cash tills and safes.

The first male is described as Caucasian, in his mid-20s to late-30s, approximately 180cm tall with a slim build and was wearing dark coloured clothing with a North Face puffer jacket.

The second male is described as Caucasian, in his mid-20s to late-30s, approximately 170cm tall with a stocky build and was wearing a black hooded jumper, grey track pants, a beige face covering and black runners.

Anyone with information can contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or www.crimestoppersvic.com.au.
