In another incident, offenders stole money from an ATM after smashing their way into an EagleHawk hotel also on April 19.
The following day, thieves broke into a home on the Kings Highway near Bungendore and stole jewellery and collectables.
Police are also investigating a break and enter at a business on Wallace Street in Braidwood, believed to have occurred sometime between 9pm and midnight on April 20.
Police are urging members of the public, especially those in rural areas, to lock their homes and sheds.
