Police are appealing for public assistance in locating a gold necklace valued at $36,000 taken from a jewellery store in Werribee earlier this month.
Investigators have been told a man entered the store at a shopping centre on Heaths Road at 10am, Thursday, April 7, and asked to view a nine-carat gold 55cm curb necklace.

Police have released images of a man that may be able to assist with the investigation.
He is described as Caucasian, 170 centimetres tall, with short dark hair and a medium build.
He was wearing spectacles, a blue face mask, an fluorescent orange jacket, khaki pants and black Nike shoes.
