Race simulators driven off

By Cam Lucadou-Wells

A PAIR of racing simulators that were stolen from a Dandenong South factory in April remain missing.
Dandenong CIU investigators say more than $30,000 of uninsured items, including the simulators, several TVs and wheel rims, were taken from the Swift Way factory.
On the weekend of 4-6 April, burglars are believed to have broken in through the factory’s front door by using an angle grinder to cut the padlock.
“There were quite a few heavy items so they would have needed a vehicle to make their getaway,” Detective Senior Constable Chris O’Halloran of Dandenong CIU said.
“The owner’s insurance doesn’t cover the items that were stolen so the burglary has, unfortunately, caused him some hardship.”
Any information to Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or crimestoppersvic.com.au
