Victoria Police have released detailed CCTV footage as they try to track down a pair of burglars who smashed their way into a Gippsland jewellery store.
Police said the two thieves arrived at the Leongatha jewellery store in a stolen black Lexus SUV about 2:45am on February 15.
One of them, dressed in a disposable orange jumpsuit and armed with a sledgehammer, repeatedly smashed through the glass front door of the shop.
They both then entered and, using a crowbar to smash up the store, stole watches, pearls and other jewellery.
The pair then fled the Bair Street jewellery store and were last seen driving off in the SUV.
The second offender was dressed in a grey beanie and navy tracksuit pants.
The SUV was found, burnt out, near Rices Road in Rosedale nearly two weeks later on February 27.
Detectives are appealing for anyone with information to contact Crime Stoppers.
