A Braeside post office has again been burgled – only three weeks after the previous robbery after two robberies in July.
The parcel thieves struck the Ventura Way mail sorting outlet overnight Monday 12 September and stole a large quantity of parcels. Moorabbin police are unsure at this stage exactly how many were stolen.
Chains and locks to gates to the property were cut by the thieves who entered the main building through a side door and accessed the parcel storage area. There they bent the door jamb to force open a door and used a hand trolley to keep it open while stealing items.
Police are viewing CCTV to assess how many parcels were stolen in the raid.
Anyone who has information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential report at crimestoppersvic.com.au
