Police are appealing for information after fuel was stolen from a property near Wagga Wagga last month. Just before 10pm on Wednesday 11 December 2013, two men entered a property near Currawarna -approximately 30km north-west of Wagga Wagga – and stole fuel.

Police believe it is possible the fuel was then on-sold to local members of the public. They are seeking assistance from anyone who may have purchased fuel around that time, or who has information about the incident.

Detective Inspector Steve Radford from the Wagga Wagga Local Area Command has also issued a safety warning to other property owners in the area. “Property owners and machinery users alike are advised to ensure the security of their properties and fuel tanks,” Detective Inspector Radford said. “We also recommend property owners consider the installation of cameras as a preventative measure,” he said.
