A ram raid severely demolished the front wall of a gasoline station, although it doesn’t seem like anything was stolen.

Just before 1:30am on Saturday, the BP station in Caversham in northeastern Perth, was the target.

Detectives said after examining the business nothing seemed to have been taken, however they are looking for a white Toyota Hilux truck they believe was involved in the raid.

Early on Saturday morning, a bystander saw that the service station kiosk’s front glass doors on Bennett Street were broken and alerted the police.

The ram attack totally broke the front glass wall of the BP petrol station in Caversham in Perth (seen in tact above).

Police suspect a white dual-cab vehicle, perhaps a Toyota Hilux, was used to force access to the business at approximately 1.25am despite the fact that the automobile used in the raid had been driven away.

According to authorities, it doesn’t seem that anything was taken from the shop at this time.

An investigation is still being conducted, and a crime scene has been formed.

Anyone with information from the dashcam or CCTV footage taken in the Caversham area between Saturday morning between 1 and 2 AM is encouraged to contact WA police.
