A white BMW abandoned at Rochedale South on Christmas Eve is believed to be connected to an armed robbery at a home in Sheldon.
Detectives say initial investigations indicate between 5.45am and 6.45am on Thursday, December 24, two men forced their way into the Mount Cotton Road property.
Once inside, both men threatened and restrained a 75-year-old resident before stealing cash and personal property.
The pair then left the property, stealing the victim’s white BMW and driving away in it.
The car was later located abandoned in Tandara Street, Rochedale South.
Detectives are appealing to anyone who was driving along Mt Gravatt Capalaba Road Capalaba, Mount Cotton Road Capalaba, Avalon Road Sheldon or Priestdale Road Rochedale South between 5.45am and 6.45am on Thursday, December 24, who may have dashcam footage to contact police.
