Yesterday’s statement appeals for public sightings that could assist with several potentially linked incidents.
The Fulton Hogan quarry and metal processing facility near Luggate was burgled some time between 4.30pm on October 29 and 8.30am on October 31. Among the items taken was a 1979 Nomad caravan with the registration 26FZQ (pictured in yesterday’s ODT).
A green Toyota Hilux was seen towing a caravan while travelling south on State Highway 8 near Beaumont about 6.30am on October 30, the statement said.
Otago Lakes-Central police are also seeking information about two stolen Toyota Hilux utes that were found stripped and dumped near the summit of the Crown Range Rd last Friday.
The blue Hilux was stolen from Kawarau Rd, near Queenstown Airport, some time between noon on October 10 and noon the next day. The white Hilux was stolen from the intersection of Riverbank and Cardrona Valley Rds, in Wanaka, some time between the afternoon of September 30 and the evening of October 2.
The rightful owner of an old tandem-axle trailer is also being sought.
Police said the investigation had no connection to two major drug busts in the region in the past month.
