Detectives Investigate Hampton Park aggravated burglary

Casey Crime Investigation Unit detectives are investigating an aggravated burglary in Hampton Park last week, where offenders impersonated police.

It is understood two men forced open the locked security door at the Highland Avenue residence, before they kicked in the front door just before 3am on Friday 2 February.

The two occupants woke up and one occupant observed the men in the hallway of the home before they fled on foot.

The footage from the doorbell camera which the men stole, captures them identifying themselves as police when inside the home.

Detectives have released an image and CCTV footage of one of the men in the hope someone with information will come forward.

The man in the CCTV footage is wearing a ‘GEEDUP’ brand hooded windcheater and the other man is described to have all dark clothing.

Both men described to be aged in their 30s, one had an Australian accent and the other a New Zealand accent.

Anyone who witnessed the incidents, has dashcam/CCTV footage or information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or www.crimestoppersvic.com.au
