Offenders have broken into a number of businesses - first in Eugowra, then in Forbes - and attempted to break into others.

They're also appealing for anyone in the community who witnessed suspicious activity from 3am Wednesday, or who has any information about the crime spree, to provide them with information.
The Eugowra break-ins appear to have occurred about 4am, a police spokesperson said.
Offenders forced entry to one business through a side door, at another business they removed a window-mounted air conditioner to gain entry.
They also smashed a window to gain entry to a club, but appear to have been deterred when the alarms went off.
There is evidence of an attempt to force entry on the side door of another business.
