Seaford, VIC – Two men have been arrested after allegedly breaking into a storage yard and stealing a decommissioned passenger bus in Seaford on Thursday night.
The incident occurred around 7:30 pm on 20 February 2025, when a witness spotted two men using bolt cutters to gain access to a depot on Milne Avenue. The concerned citizen alerted police, who responded swiftly to the scene.
