Coordinated theft from motor vehicle incident - Essendon

Police have released images of two men who may be able to assist with enquiries after a truck was broken into in Essendon earlier last month, Victoria Police say.

It’s believed a man has stolen a large number of items from a truck parked at a loading dock on the northern side of a Bulla Road shopping centre about 3.30pm.

At this stage police are investigating whether another man acted as a lookout and followed the truck driver around the complex, keeping the offender at the loading dock updated on the phone.

Both men left the scene together in a white 2003 Toyota Hiace SBV van.

Police have released images of a vehicle they wish to identify and a man who they believe may be able to assist with their enquiries.

Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers.
