Police are asking for the public’s help to identify and locate two people following the ram raid at Whakatāne's Town Centre Dairy last month.
Around 1am on Friday, October 24, the pair forced their way into the Boon Street store, causing significant damage.
Police were called several hours later, but the offenders had already fled.
Town Centre Dairy Owner Julie Perez says the store was closed for repairs for more than a week, costing more than $2000 a day in lost revenue.
She says these sorts of incidents are, "dangerous to someone who has a dairy."
Police ask for anyone who may know either of the people in these images, or have any information about the burglary, to get in touch either online at 105.police.govt.nz, by clicking “Update report”, or call 105 with the reference number 251024/5500.
