Police seek man over power tool thefts

The Wyndham Burglary Reduction Team is on the hunt for a man they believe has been responsible for two break-ins at a Laverton North business in two months.

Police are investigating after the man forced his way into the Cherry Lane business just after 10.40pm on April 30, stealing about $1500 worth of power tools.

It’s believed the same man was also responsible for a similar theft at the same business on March 5.

The Wyndham Burglary Reduction Team is investigating both thefts and has released images of a man they’d like to speak to.

The man is described as being of Caucasian appearance, slim build, dark hair and a fair complexion.

Anyone with any information about the incident or who may recognise the man is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
