At around 3.15pm on Thursday 23 February 2023, two men entered a hardware store on Spearwood Avenue in Bibra Lake. After selecting a $895 pool cleaning unit, they removed a bar code from a $12 pool brush and placed it onto the box of the pool cleaning unit. When exiting the store, they scanned the pool brush bar code on the pool cleaner box paying only the cost of the brush.
Police have released CCTV images of a man who they believe may be able to assist with their investigation.
The man is described as: white skinned, medium build, between 45 to 55 years of age with short grey hair. He was wearing a white ‘Under Armour’ t-shirt, black trousers, black joggers with a black shoulder bag.
