Three utes were stolen from separate motels in West Wyalong, before being used in 'ram raids' against a service station and a motorcycle shop between 3 and 4am on July 28.
Two of the cars were used to steal cigarettes from a petrol station on Neeld Street and steal two Husqvarna motorcycles from a store on Main Street.
While carrying the motorbikes, a white Toyota Hilux and another vehicle pulled another job at an Ungarie petrol station, where two offenders stole a sum of cash after smashing the front door. The cash tray was later located on Abernethys Lane, towards Lake Cargelligo.
