Supermarket break-in

POLICE are hunting two men who burgled a Kerang supermarket, stealing cigarettes and alcohol.

The pair broke into the Victoria Street store about 4.38am on July 9.

They later drove off in a light-coloured sedan.


Bike thief nabbed

A MAN will appear in court after he stole a bicycle in a Kerang.

The offender stole the Hot Wheels bicycle from a Nolan Street residence about 1.13am on July 9.

He was identified through CCTV and arrested later that day.

He will appear in court in October.


Grocery theft

A WOMAN has been arrested after failing to pay for groceries at a Kerang supermarket.

The woman went to a self-service checkout about 8.10pm on July 1 but failed to pay for all the items, worth $62.

She was arrested a short time later.


Danger tracks

POLICE say a female driver will be charged with dangerous driving in Gunbower State Forest last week.

Police were patrolling the forest about 3.20pm on July 8 when they saw a white Mitsubishi driving along tracks in a dangerous manner.

Officers followed the vehicle for “some time” until it came to a quick stop, when two males got out. The Mitsubishi then drove off.

Police took statements from the passengers.
