Cannington Detectives are investigating a series of incidents that occurred on March 18, 2019.
Around 9.20pm the victim, a 60-year-old man, was at work at a warehouse in Ewing Street, Bentley.
He was sitting outside in a car park on a break when two men walked nearby.
One of the men has looked into the warehouse and returned to the second man, handing him a rock.
The second man approached the victim and threw the rock, striking him in the head, causing the man to fall to the ground.
The offender searched the victim's pockets stealing his wallet, phone and cigarettes.
Both men entered the warehouse, removed a number of items and left. It's believed they left in a vehicle.
The victim was conveyed to hospital with a broken jaw and facial swelling as a result of the assault.
Around an hour later a dark coloured Ford Territory entered a service station in Thornlie. The driver filled up the vehicle with petrol and he drove off without paying.
This vehicle was stolen from Erskine and located abandoned in Wilson early the following morning.
Police have released a CCTV image of a man who they believe may be able to assist them with their investigation into these incidents.
