Counterfeit notes used at Yarraville bakeries

Police are searching for a man who passed off counterfeit bank notes at two Yarraville bakeries last month.

The man entered Bakers Delight on Anderson Street about 6am on June 12, purchasing several goods using a counterfeit $100 note.

The same man entered a second Bakers Delight bakery on Williamstown Road shortly after, using another counterfeit $100 note.

The man, described as Caucasian and aged about 20 to 25 years old, was wearing a black and grey-sleeved bomber jacket with a blue shirt.

Investigators believe he may live in the area and frequent the Yarraville Village and Footscray areas.

Police have released images and footage of a man they believe may be able to assist with their enquiries.

Anyone with information is urged to contact Footscray Police Station on 8398 9800 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000, or submit a confidential report at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au
