Two men and a woman are said to have entered a shopping yard on Wellard Street on Bibra Lake around 5:30 p.m. Once inside, they used a shipping container handler to load a 6-meter container into a truck before leaving.
The truck used to transport the marine container is believed to have been stolen from a yard at the Naval Base in August.
