Timber frames taken
Timber framing has been stolen from two building sites in Beveridge.
Timber valued at $6000 was stolen from a house under construction in Numbut Dve between June 25 and 27.
All the timber was strapped together, with the longest piece measuring six metres.
The second theft occurred between 3pm on June 30 and 9am on July 1, when temporary fencing was removed from a house under construction in Dingo Rd and the timber frame that had been delivered to the site was stolen.
The timber was in three packs about five metres long and one metre wide, wrapped in plastic and extremely heavy. It was valued at $10,000.
Offenders would have needed a trailer and possibly a bob cat to remove the timber from the sites due to the weight of the timber.
Car, garage broken into

Between 1am and 2am on June 28, the offender gained access to a vehicle parked outside a Birdwood Cres home and used the garage remote clicker to open the garage.
Nothing else was stolen.
