Police are on the trail of burglars who demolished the wall of a service station before stealing an ATM in Whittlesea this morning.

Investigators believe two offenders arrived at a Plenty Road service station in a white single cab tray utility just before 3am.

One of the offenders then entered an adjacent business and stole a bulldozer, which he as driven back to the service station before using it to demolish a wall.

The pair then dragged the ATM out of the store before loading it onto the waiting tray utility.

The car was last seen travelling on Wallans Road towards Wallan.

Whittlesea Crime Investigation Unit detectives appeal for anyone who might have seen any suspicious activity in the area to come forward.

Investigators particularly wish to speak to anyone who saw a white single cab tray utility around the time of the incident.
