THE hunt is on for thieves who stole a bobcat from a house construction site in Point Leo Road, Point Leo, two weeks ago.
The Case 85xt skidsteer loader, tools, a small bar fridge and a Milwaukee radio were believed to have been taken between 6pm on Thursday 15 June and 7am the following day.
It is believed a person driving a 2015 gun-metal grey Mercedes Benz GL wagon and pulling a trailer allegedly stolen from a Bittern car trailer hire company around the same time may have information. It is also believed the same trailer was later found dumped in a paddock in Hastings.
There have been sightings of the 3.6 tonne loader being transported in the Somerville and Hastings areas, with one motorist photographing it on Bittern-Dromana Road after thinking it might be suspicious.
Anyone with information or dash cam footage should contact CrimeStoppers on 1300 333 000.
