Police are appealing for public assistance following an aggravated burglary and assault in Croydon earlier this month.

It’s believed at least two men attended a Hull Road property about 3.30pm on Wednesday 16 August and were involved in an altercation with a male resident at the address.

The men then took a number of items from the property before assaulting the man.

They have then left the area in an unknown direction.

Police believe the incident was targeted and are appealing for anyone with information to come forward.

Investigators are also keen to speak to anyone in the area around Hull Road between Silverley Road, Kincumber Drive, Lionel Crescent and Alamein Avenue who may have CCTV footage or dash-cam from between 3pm and 5pm on 16 August.

Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au
