Police appeal for information following fire at Rebels OMCG clubhouse in Dandenong South

The burglary occurred at a residence in Brighton Crescent on 12 October about 5.10am where a Repsol Honda motorcycle and two sets of car keys to Audi’s were stolen.

The offenders returned to the address on 16 October and stole a black Audi Q7 and a white 2013 white Audi Q3 wagon.

CCTV footage from the night of the fire shows four vehicles at the clubhouse just minutes before it was set alight.

Investigators believe the stolen black Audi Q7 and Repsol Honda motorcycle along with a white Hyundai Veloster and a sports motorcycle attended the Rebels clubhouse just before 4am on 21 October.

The stolen black Audi Q7 was reversed through the roller doors of the clubhouse and set alight by unknown offenders.

Emergency services attended the factory on England Street which was completely destroyed by fire about 4.25am.

It is believed four offenders then fled the scene in the three vehicles.

The stolen Repsol motorcycle was found abandoned in Richmond on 10 November and the Audi Q3 was recovered in Cranbourne North on 11 November.

The Hyundai Veloster and sports motorcycle still haven’t been found.

Detectives have released images of two men following the Mt Eliza burglary who may be able to assist with their enquiries.

Investigators have also released similar images of the vehicles involved, in the hope someone may have seen them at the time of the fire.

Police are appealing for public assistance and are keen to speak to anyone that may have seen any suspicious activity around the time of the fire.

Police are aware of escalating tensions between the Rebels and Comanchero OMCGs and are actively monitoring these groups.

The community can be assured and confident that Victoria Police will continue its strong focus on any criminal activities associated with rival Outlaw Motorcycle Gangs and any other groups.

Anyone with information about the incident is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or make a confidential report at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au.
