Port Philip Crime Investigation Unit detectives are appealing for public assistance following an aggravated burglary in South Melbourne last month.
It is understood a man entered a property on Coventry Street about 2.40am on Thursday, 24 March whilst the occupants were asleep.
Detectives have been told a male victim woke to find the offender and escorted him out of the building.
The offender then fled the scene and there were no injuries.
Investigators have released a digital image of a man and CCTV images in the hope someone may recognise him.
The man is described as Caucasian, in his 40s with short brown hair.
Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or make a report at www.crimestoppersvic.com.auExternal Link.
