TWO men who smashed a plate glass door at the Woolworths supermarket in Baxter stole more than $130,000 in cigarettes and cash about 3.30am, Wednesday 28 August.

The men are shown on CCTV footage using an angle grinder to break into the store on Baxter-Tooradin Road and climbing over service counters. Detectives believe the men later attempted to force a roller door at a Coles Liquorland, Ashleigh Avenue, Frankston, but failed.

They are shown wearing hoodies, masks and gloves and driving off in a dark coloured SUV.

Anyone with information can call Detective Hocking 5978 1300 or Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000.
