GOODS worth $53,500 were stolen from an equipment hire company in Berwick last month.
Police said a man phoned the store about 10.20am on Monday 17 August and ordered concrete cutting and drilling items.
He asked for the items to be delivered to an address in Enterprise Avenue, Berwick, and for the amount to be charged to a maintenance business.
The delivered items were subsequently taken from that address and the business that was billed for the items told police that it did not place the order.
Police have released a face image of a man they believe can assist with their inquiries.
They said the image is a 60 to 70 per cent likeness of the man and that he has very few teeth.
Anyone with information is urged to contact the Casey Crime Investigation Unit on 9705 3114 or phone Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
