Hoddles Creek fire station burglary

Yarra Ranges Crime Investigation Unit detectives are investigating a burglary at a fire station in Hoddles Creek last month.

It’s believed two offenders arrived at the Lusatia Park Road property in a ute about 5.45am on 30 July.

They gained access through the locked rear door of the premises before attempting to unplug the CCTV cameras.

The offenders then rifled through three vehicles as well as storage shelves, piling various tools and a generator at the rear of premises.

The offenders carried all the items to their vehicle, described as either a Commodore or Falcon, white or silver ute with a black tray, and drove away.

One of the men was wearing a black hoodie with unidentified white logo, black tracksuit pants and white Asic runners.

The other man was wearing a black jumper with a round white logo on left side, an inside-out white polo t-shirt with black/dark blue trim around head and dirty grey coloured Everlast tracksuit pants and black shoes.

Both men have thin builds and appear to be aged in their late teens/early 20s.

Investigators have released CCTV of a vehicle believed to have been involved.

Anyone with information or who witnessed suspicious activity in the area is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential report at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au
