Further to Dec 18 post concerning suspicious behaviour ...

Of recent there has been a dark metallic grey Holden Commodore slowly circulating the town - noted on several occasions within the last week.
It is missing a left hand rear hubcap / wheel trim and the petrol filler door is missing from the right hand rear panel.
It was occupied by 3 people who seemed intent on looking into yards.

If you see this vehicle note the registration number and any details.
A picture tells a thousand words.

Lock your cars, sheds and home.
Keep an eye on your pets, with one taken a matter of weeks ago from the town.
