Police on lookout for midnight meat thieves

Police are appealing for public assistance following a late-night break-in at a Balaklava supermarket last month.

CCTV footage captured two offenders entering the Wallace Street premises at around 2.30am on Wednesday, October 28, before making off with a quantity of meat.

Police have described one suspect as a male of large build and the second as a slim, younger individual.

Both offenders were wearing trackpants and gloves during the break-in.

Anyone who noticed suspicious activity in the area around that time or has information that could assist the investigation is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or online.
