Police seek two men in $1100 canned tuna heist from North Rocks Coles

Two men allegedly filled a trolley with canned tuna and walked out of a North Rocks Coles without paying on October 7.

Police in Sydney's north west are hunting two men caught on CCTV stealing about $1100 worth of tinned tuna from a North Rocks Coles. One man filled an entire trolley with canned tuna while his companion waited near the entrance.

The second man then timed the entry gates perfectly to let his partner walk out without paying. The theft happened on October 7.

Hills Police have released CCTV footage and are asking anyone with information to contact Crime Stoppers NSW on 1800 333 000. The appeal notes the unusually large quantity of tuna.
