A woman has stolen four bags from a Melbourne Airport carousel and later burgled the Altona Meadows home of one of the victims.
Investigators from the Hobsons Bay crime investigation unit have released an image of a woman they want to speak to in relation to the burglary and theft.
Detective Senior Constable Megan Walters said the woman stole the baggage from the terminal 4 carousel about 3pm on November 20 last year.
“[She] selected four bags from the carousel and placed them onto a trolley and then has just wheeled the trolley to a small white car and then a short time later has committed the residential burglary in Altona Meadows,” she said.
There was no forced entry to the Alma Avenue home, which was burgled within an hour of the luggage theft.
Cash, jewellery and electrical goods were taken from the home.
Police are appealing for public assistance to identify the woman.
She had long blonde hair and was wearing sunglasses and a DC t-shirt.
The four stolen bags belonged to four separate victims.
Anyone with information is being urged to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
